Also a great idea.

My short term memory is worthless so trying to rely on that for anything just don't work!

My point! I took a metal cable across my face at my old job. Gave me a nasty concussion. Since then, my short term took a dump.

Sorry for the lack of posting on here, its been hectic. These guys are rough on their vans. The van that has the bad motor is a 98 5.4L, the donor is an 05 5.4L The last mechanic had bought it, he was stupid. These motors are very different. So in this swap, I have to changed over the trans, brainbox, and wiring harness with it. -facepalm-

This last mechanic was a real idiot.
