Well boys, back to business!!! Over the past fer weeks I have been repairing the roof on our home, piss poor roofer before I bought it. And getting Bil's car going and replacing the crank in a friends S-10 and helping Drew get his Syclone back into a condition that he can finish it on his own, it has been almost 3 years since this truck has been down. Drew and I spent yesterday putting Mel's Syclone motor back in it's rightful home, all he has to do is button her up. It's been almost 2 years that his truck has been down. Seeing as the Indy purchase has been complete it is time to get back on "THE" project. NOW IT's TIME FOR ME TO WORK ON MY STUFF!!!!
So I had a ordering mishap and it took a couple of weeks to correct. I finally have all the parts in to button up the brakes and power steering. I have the headers mounted and the turbo mounted. (Pics Later). Plan for today is to get the brakes and PS buttoned and bled and to finally mount the core support fenders and hood and give her a wash!! (Pics Later) !! If time permits today I'll be looking at the harness again today to make sure I'm getting the continuity, in the harness, to get this thing to start.
Next order, after the holiday recovery, will be fuel lines and oil feed for the turbo. Then it's time to button up the harness, find a couple of gallons of ethanol free gas and charge a battery to finally give her a crank to see if she'll run. If that happens than the goal for May will have been achieved.
Yes it can be done, it just depends on how deep your wallet is!
