    so after everything with my car getting trashed i really needed some good news. when i got the front of the car off i put a wreanch on the crank and it wouldn't turn. so tonight i got the engine and trans out of the car and when i seperated them the motor was fine. the trans was locked up. the bell housing has a crack almost all the way around it. i'll have to get some pic's up to show you guys. so now at least i have a motor to go into the falcon.
