How it's looking like right now a new motor, after taking the old motor apart who ever assembled it put the wrong pistons in it and then decked the block so it can't be salvaged and what ever else they cheaped out on. Oh well it'll be better then ever and faster.

Jim... what is that... looks like a big, box plow...
also, you better strap it down better than that

Re: what did your car get for xmas? - 12/25/11 11:08 PM

You are only seeing 1 of the 6 straps. It's an 11' snow pusher for a bucket loader.




I think it's right around 3k lbs if I was to guess. Big chunk of steel.

Got to come home with some sort of brush hog... the things you will do for family. It's for Dad's Ski area in VT. We managed to get the big old thing in there without damaging the floor, hope we have the same luck getting it out.

And if it stays on it's best behavior, next year I might get it a max effort N/A HEMI (if my Cuda' sells).

My Hemi is in the country (New Zealand) but didn't make it down to where I live by Christmas

My good lady did buy me a classic Grant steering wheel for my period Pro Stock '70 Barracuda project.

Re: what did your car get for xmas? - 12/27/11 02:51 AM

Mine got neglected, again I am going to pull the motor out so I can do a leak down test and possibly rering it and fix a hard to find oil leak and do a valve spring check plus what ever else I see that needs attention I have a back up higher compression bullet sitting on the shop floor on a dolly, maybe that one will jump into the car when I'm not looking Maybe not, pump gas is good

Working heat, and a tan colored Polyurea floor from www.rocksolidfloors.com

Sorry for the shameless plug, but they did give me the flooring for free to test the new color.
Gotta pay 'em back somehow

Oh and it's about to get a spare core 440 and 727 too, just in case.
