You must have been! The good news is that you're a day ahead of schedule if you thought today was Monday!

I hope you get it all buttoned up and get to drive it today.

Well, once again, it's running! I'll have to take it for a test drive to see if anything is gonna leak. Might do that later though. We gotta get Tyler's truck is the shop asap and get the trans and flywheel out. I might try to take mine for a ride this evening.

Good job Bill. Hopefully this time everything stays clean and dry.

Good luck with Tyler's truck. What clutch is he going with this time?

Thanks everybody! We got Tyler's trans and flywheel out. He's going back with a Valair brass/organic. We're just relaxing in the house now. Gettin ready to eat and play some cards. I may take my truck out for a drive later on this evening. I just hope everything is sealed up good this time. I'm looking forward to doing some towing with it.
