my ride.




note: see the head studs.













this was my failed injector that would miss randomly. no codes every came up. this is also the tool we use the most to help identify a failed injector.



and one of the beasts that watch over everything he can see.

Can you also tell us how you got to the torque converter bolts and was there any other bolts that were hard to get to?

I do have one more question. Is the rear engine to transmission adapter different for a standard truck as compared to an automatic?

Reason I ask is the motor i'm putting in my truck is from a standard truck and my truck is an automatic. My donor motors rear adapter definitely looks different than yours as shown in your seventh picture.

We always would get a good snow in Plano once a year. 3-5 inches and then it would be gone in a couple of days. It amazes me the perceptions that people have a Texas that really are far off base. I like John Wayne movies, but they are wrong in so many ways and I think that is what really has put certain perceptions about Texas in people's minds.

Cheezit, very nice truck. It always made me sick to see my bably with everything exposed though.
