    Hmm. It's been a while.

    If not for deadlines, nothing would get done. So off we go again. My beautiful bride drove down to Pasadena yesterday to pick up our "new" TBI 350 that Flem found for me on Craigslist. Thanks again. I had decided against the 5.3 after talking to Scott about the ending pricetag. Here are the things I'm working on:

    • flywheel - it has an auto one, I need a standard trans one.

    • clutch - need to order one

    • bell housing - need a new one since the old one is in the bus

    • power steering - I'll likely have to rework the hoses

    • air compressor - It has an AC compressor, but that will likely wait until the next deadline

    • clutch slave - I'll need to get a new Cruiser slave and build another mount, old one on the bus

    • motor mounts - will have to build some, should be easy, engine has C-mounts

    • wiring - will need some Flemboni magic on this one because I'm electric dumb.

    • computer - check. Flem picked one up today for $10

    • fuel pump & return line - may take a few trips to the parts store


    I think that's about it. Hoping to have it on the trailer on the way to Clayton in a few short weeks.
