which was newQuote:

wow. that looks great!
what motor mounts/tranny/t-case did u use?
in my defense the only booty fab on my truck at the moment is probably my welded pitman arm.

excellent...the only problem I see is the carb on top of that motor.
That really awesome Coop! Nice clean install. So the next question is, when are you getting some full width 1ton axles? :D

Go back to your land of fuel injection and leave us cheap bastards alone :flipoff2:Quote:

Put another new holley 80gpm pump on and it ran straight up with no probs this weekend :)
I love the M/T valve covers, now you just need some of his tires to match!! Looks badass coop, when I get melba 2 we'll race...
well those are real M/T valve covers that M.T. actually gave to the guy that gave them to me. he has a pair on his big block hes putting in his 59 stude, its like a ~~512Quote:

ok members rigs works now.. here are some pics
http://www.tamor.org/members-rigs/album160?page=1
and i have a chit load of toyota a 350 parts for sale if anybody needs something
and the outdrive on the boat is going out so i get a couple days away from that while we wait for parts on that, so im gonna load the truck on the trailer and get the exhaust put on and finish the guages today...
forkin' sweet...
nice looking engine :gigem:
So does charlie truck haul balls or what?
saw charlie this past week in Port A while i was picking up some bait, looks good
speaking of Charlie truck, did you ever find the tcase shifter handle coop? I looked in the FJ and haven't seen it...
yes the truck hauls ****ing balls... lay down rubber all 3 gears, its pretty sick... ask stacy. and yeah i saw your bronco ryan... thanks for saying hi ass :flipoff2:
and no i never found the shifter. so i dunno what to do about that.
here are some pics of other stuff done, this **** was all done weeks ago i just forgot to put up pics... so heres a couple of new ****. and updates
... new exhaust, put in HEI, put on an edelbrock carb, new alt, new tool box - 1 for tow straps and ropes and the big one for tools and **** and somewhere to stick all my stickers :flipoff2: , and i just got the power steering hose adapted for the second time since the ****ing beaners couldnt do it right the first time... my arms sure are getting strong with no power steering
and yes i know the exhaust looks weird but it isnt as close as it looks and if you look at marios truck its almost the same
Nice military fuse box.
that looks great. did u just use regular blockhugger headers? I used em and then got my exhaust done, but they started to tap the frame and blow the top of my gaskets out. i had to clearance the frame a bit to keep the flanges from hitting...then i had to cut the cross pipe out again and redo.

so last night me and eric decided to fix my gearing issue...
summary:
red neck that sold eric truck said it had 4.88s
busa told me he sold the guy the rear axle from gregs toy
found out gears were mismatched- lower in front
assumption: stock rear 4.10s front 4.88s
eric finds me a 3rd member with 4.10s for front
pull apart front find it ****ed up and its like a ~3.8 ratio WTF?
eric decides the gear oil smells like a big black lunch ladies bonch
check rear ratio ~3.55s WTF??
so now we have 3 3rd members- all with different gear ratios
now have 4.10s in front and need yet another 3rd member for the rear now
then i went to the hall
... jason was drunk
and i also broke my thottle cable so now i drive like this
