Tis true I am slower than a seven year itch stuck in molases right now. My motivation comes in spurts but fortuanetely im on the up swing so things should start falling into place again. The 4.3 and the r151 are all bolted together and in the truck. To make things simple I bolted on the crossmember lifted it up in and where ever it sat thats where the motor was going to go. Turns out with the AA adapter it sits very nice against the firewall. I have my fuel lines hooked up just need to mount them to the frame. Got a radiator ordered too, its a summit racing aluminum 22wx19tx2.75 dual pass with chevy hook ups. While those are the dimensions they list it is actually the same size as a toyota radiator minus the tabs on the side. So if anyone is having trouble with heating I would highly recomend this radiator cause I think it will get the job done and then some. Should get my starter mounted up tonight. I just have to drill and tap a hole in the block since I have a 153t straight mount starter and the block is drilled for 168 staggered. Also on the list of to dos is the steering. I got a forward swing landcruiser box that I will be mounting up since the axle is moved so far forward. Now if Gotrocks gets off his but and makes the 40 min drive to my house and brings his camera I will get some pics hehe. I lost my charger, but if I find it I will get some. Thanks buddy for always pushing me to get my :pokinit: going. If all goes well this week I should be able to start it up!
