Wrenching time

Looking to see who might be interested in doing a little wrenching. Some mods include muffler delete, re-routing guages under the dash to the A-pillar, and of course ball joints for the rims and tires. I'll supply the food and drinks.

Got the OK from Dave, so i'll let him schedule a date so maybe we can use his dad's shop.

Thanks
Mike

Right now I have Dipricol's pryo, boost, and trans under the dash. I noticed that they don't get looked at very often because of the location, so I was wanting to relocate them to the pillar.

Dave, any Saturday would work for me, sounds like fun.

I'm on mid shift, so I can do it today....as long as you don't mind starting late afternoon and working on into the night. Other than that I'd say the 30th is your best bet since next weekend is Memorial day.

Hell. I'm available right now if we had somewhere to work.

Nothing has been finalized, but I'm pretty sure I'll be in Hot Springs on the 30th with the wife's family. If that falls through I'll be there.

I need to put one of these together sometime in the next 2-3 months to put in a torque converter. Here's one I'm looking at:

FORD 4R100 DIESEL 7.3L POWERSTROKE TORQUE CONVERTER:eBay Motors (item 260350430045 end time May-21-09 10:27:26 PDT)

From prior auctions i know it can be had in the $300 range. They have good feedback, but haven't been selling on ebay too long..I know. risky

opinions?
