    She lives again.

    Welp as some of you know about 2 years ago this genious had a brilliant idea of pulling the perfect running 305 out of my 92 to replace with a 350 i didnt have and paint in my garage that had just a handful of hand tools.... so i got everything pulled painted and all that, and yea.... i had every excuse someone could come up with to not finish it. and caught alot of crap from people for it. and towed it back to MD. where i pulled another 305 out that Mjuntti hooked me up with. and threw in a 350 with a small cam and a MSD setup. and it sat like that for about 6-7 months.... well a few weeks ago my old man said something has to happen either i make it a driver or i part it out, sell it, or scrap it. either way it had to be out of the yard.... so after some more excuses i took this week off, and just last night finally got it fired up, and hopefully tonight i will have everything else hooked up and watch her run til shes warm and see how it does. the motor cranked over perfect with it sitting for months through rain and all and no milkiness in the oil or anything. i cant wait.... she might be on the road soon and i might MIGHT make a trip out for the M&G next year.

            darren look at it on your computer, i tried to txt it to you but it was to big apparently..... hopefully tonight. i will be able to get a camera set up outside and videotape it so you can actually hear it..... for a motor that has sat for probably a good 5 years she sounds sooooooo smooth.

                not yet, kinda got caught up today with some stuff and got pissed with a so called family friend about getting my jeep inspected and said to hell with it and went and got that inspected. got the car up and running tonight for a few minutes and found a handful of little dumb things. but tomorrow for it i have to pull the oil system apart and teflon tape everything. possibly get a different belt. throw the dshaft in and figure out how to tie the catback off so it doesnt drag, and fingers crossed pull her out of the garage and back down to my place where she will sit for a little bit longer, becasue next week i leave for a school for 4 weeks. then itll get trailered to jersey and finish all the dumb stuff and find out what i am going to do for a y-pipe.

                  Doesn't Jersey require visual inspection and emissions testing?

                      after almost 2 years gentlemen..... trans was low on fluid and i had to use the e-brake so i couldnt give her to much. but hopefully before i wrap her up for the winter ill have the brakes taken care of, interior put together, and a ypipe put on and trans lines ran through a cooler and she shouldnt be to far from road worthy
