hmm
he's not selling his stuff on pirate anymore, i saw it when i was looking for shifter like 4 months ago. He is still making his stuff, but he's really slow, by his own admittance, as he is a one man operation.Quote:

Make the b!tch run....fred cover your ears. Most likely this will involve carbing it. I got a free intake and 4 barrel from mike. Im going to rebuild the carb and clean up the intake. I cant work on it wear its stored, and I cant keep it in the driveway. If i carb it and make it run i can drive it to and from the storage place.
I can work on it my driveway without repercussion for a weekend. So when I want to work on it, i'll just drive it back over here.
As far as I know, everything but the motor is in working condition. Steering is all hooked up, and i think the brakes are good.
Here is what it needs to run:
carb rebuilt
intake cleaned up
new distributor
plugs/wires
i'll have to check on the fuel pump and stuff once i pull it out.
I'll have to get with karlisa and find a time in a couple of months when we can do it at don johnsons', i know he has alot of other projects though too.
We'll see how it goes.
Other plans:
either 205/203 doubler or 241/205 doubler
run the 44 for a while till i can afford a 60
cage
bumpers
new seats
fix heater
Doug, is ron's suburban still at your property?
did you see all that crap that makes beeps and boops in my apartment? Thats pro-boner (in exchange for future legal counsel)Quote:

Going to the land of very lightly used guns and stinky people today. When I return we can discuss a date.

I wanted the TBI stuff. I think this has been discussed before, will a 4.3 tbi setup work on a v8, with change of injectors/computer?Quote:

You can borrow that crap from the 4.3 in my garage if you want. It's not like it's going to be used anytime soon.Quote:

edit- i meant TPI and that was directed at jerry.
I'm not scared of TBI. If you remember, that's what's been on my scout for about 5 years now. It works good. I'm just saying that instead of trying to source additional parts, he could spend the time and effort on the TPI for the same amount of plumbing and wiring work and not only use something he already has, but end up with a more powerful, responsive engine to boot.
im siding with you fred. post edited.
my thoughts are, i'll fiddle with the current tpi for a little bit, but I dont even know if anything i have is good. the guy "got it to fire once" who the fork knows what he did.
Well, the only thing that could really be wrong with it is dead sensors, or a bad harness. Turns out I'm sure has multiple spares of these parts sitting in a corner of his apartment in College station. I he doesn't, I do. Even if the injectors are bad, I've got a set of 24#'s from an LT1 sitting on my desk at home that I'll give you. Just get a case of beer, and a bottle of Jim, and invite me and flem down for a weekend. :)
I bet vats wasn't disabled and it fired with a shot of carb cleaner
easy fix, get me the computer out of it when you get a chance and I'll fix it.
He mentioned a 4.3 TBI, so I was curious if there was an engine with it. I'd like to swap in a V6 or V8 at some pointQuote:

I'll deliver it as far as dallas for price of diesel.
Maybe I could trade you a water heater installed?
El Borracho is at its new home. It is curious about all the motorcycles and afraid of The Klogger.
sweet, now you can abandon that Ford crap and build a real truck...
was there a buy back clause in the deal?
you should put a GN body on that frame and really rub it in jerry's face.
i'll probably just get my dad to buy a different one, and then he can pay me to work on it.Quote:
