Yea those and the howell kits are sweet, I just don't agree with the price tag.

If I'm reading correctly, I can set up the TBI to run fuel only. Which means I can keep my ignition module, distributor, coil and simply throw on the throttle body, sensors, and plug it into an ecm.

Or I can set up the ECM to control spark. Which I haven't really figured out yet. Some distributor mods may be all I need to get it to work.

Gauges, 40's (Zach's tires), seats came in while I was at KOH, finally got the bender mounted, new headers, other little work been done since I last posted pictures. But its back on 4 tires for the time being. Got my 5.38's and front spool ordered. Started wiring up the motor yesterday, I'd like to have it running by the end of the weekend.

Cage party coming up soon. All hands on deck.

Just drop it onto the drums/rotors to roll it out, unless the diffs on those 1-tons will drag the ground. If so, get some steel throw-away wheels to roll it out on. I'm sure you can dig a set up from somewhere.

Looking good otherwise! Let me know if you need any brackets/tabs cut.

If anyone needs any diff parts for their build, I have to recommend RPM Offroad. Sent my paypal in 11:00 Tuesday morning and my gears, spool, and install kits showed up Wednesday afternoon. With great prices too. And some of those parts had to be dropped shipped.

Does anyone (Will...) have 60 set up bearings here in Blacksburg?
