    It better be damn good to kill the taste of that mess! I'm down to just the engine management stuff now. I have some wires left to ID but that will wait until I get the wiring diagrams for the donor.

    Ha, one foot is just the first snowfall of the year. I haven't even got out my snow boots yet. I like the snow. Snowmobiles, skiing , snowboarding, drifting every corner no mater what you drive, and tap water is finally cold enough. -40 I could do without.:cool:
