Don't worry, I got him back. I put a Viagra flyer on the windshield of his Rustang. A customer came in and said " Rod , you having problems ? "   :roflsmiley: :roflsmiley: :roflsmiley:

That's a good one! 

Love the headers.  Wish I'd sprung for the good ones for mine...

Looks good Jackie!  :2thumbs:  Any idea when it will be on the road?
Glad to see you ditched that glass fuel filter. I hate those things , had one vibrate loose once sprayed fuel all over, lucky no fire though!

Jackie,

   I won't know your engine compartment now.   :wow:

I have to ask you...Is that a 78-79 Dodge Challenger on the back left of this pic?

Now that is really starting to come along just fine.   :2thumbs:
Now that the "REAL" power plant is back in the bowtie can be removed before it blows off. I liked putting that flyer on the car, maybe a follow up with another one.   :bigsmile:
Jackie are you able to get a pic directly under the centre of the sump looking up showing the positioning of the headers to the K member, sump and drag link. What brand headers are they? I have TTi headers which I intend to fit after the new motor is fitted and want to play around with the shape of the sump and would like a pic for some guidance.   :cheers:
Hows that latest condition, graves disease, I pray that you have got a handle on it so that you can get on with living.   :burnout:

I'll get pics for you when Rod puts it back on the lift.  :2thumbs:  I put Doug headers on. Thanks for asking about me. Doc was suppose to kill my thyroid on the 29th. But my levels aren't where he needs them . So more blood work in 10 days.  :faint:

Thanks Jackie I will see them when posted, I thought your headers were different to the TTi's but they are similar for what I want to check out.
Keep smiling you need the blood more than Dracular does so he can go else where.   :smilielol:

A couple people wanted to know what tire size I was running. P225/70R/14 and P275/60R/15   :cheers:   I got a little work done today myself. Washer bottle and motor are in. I got the pentastar  back on the fender. Cleaned and oiled my air filter. And polished my headlights and trim. And cleaned the bugs off the radiator.   :working:
