Is all your internets broken?
What happened to everyone? I haven't seen any activity in a while, I hope you all been out getting some sun, I certainly have.
Where be me Colorado brethren? |
Been hangin out here waitin for somethin to happen! Haven't found that party yet! Figured you were still rebuildin a motor. lol
|
Nuttin to yap about, so I stay quiet. Did finally get the rear springs changed out on the Mustang. Had to cut the front eye as the bolts after 44 years were very much rusted in place. While changing the springs, found the drivers side had 2 out of 4 leafs broken.
|
I hope to get my motor parts today so I can start building
|

|

I "hung out" at Burts quite a bit while they were doing my 460. Had the block Magnafluxed, came back with Magnaflux OK written on the end of the block, dude started to load it onto the boring machine & looked at #4 main web casting & saw it was cracked all the way from top to bottom. They got me another block & had it magnafluxed then went over it with a magnifying glass. They don't rush things, and seem to do everything right. My 460 came out of a propane company service truck with 105K on it. The propane had burned away all the valves & seats so everything is new except the heads, rods, & crank.

Mike was very nice and explained, with one he was working on, how to do that. If I can go in there and ask a question every time I go, I'd be a happy clam. I get my parts today, 2 days late but that's not a huge deal. |

Now, to go look at that mystery attachment in my webmail. :D |
