Stolen Parts - 744x4 - 04-16-2009
I had to steal the buggy engine I had on the stand and swap it into the EB due to the 5.0 pouring quarts of oil out the intake after blowing out the rear intake seal.I have to remove the SEFI harness and replace it with the Howell EFI Harness as it just pissed me off as it hasnt run right in awhile.I guess I figured out what it was.The bad part is the hood wont fit either so I have to swap it out also for a cut unit I have laying around after I paint it first as it is ugly.It is in tonight now the fun part comes making it run and testing it before next weekend.

That SEFI has caused you more frustration than anything. Hopefully this Howell will solve all of the issues and we can wheel the crap out of it next weekend.

I went and got plugs last night after you left and tried to order the Alt but they are backordered in Black so I am just going to swap the pulley back off the Powermaster and put it back on.

Don't you just hate it when you hear the words,"Out of Stock" or "it's on back order." Those two phrases makes me want to burn'em all!!!:chili::bluboomteamenforcer:gunshot::offtopic: :xyxthumbs:

The exhaust is done minus one nut.The SEFI wiring harness is out and the Howell stuff is in and the computer is hooked up.Hooked up the O2 sensor and plugged the other hole and worked on the trade Hood.

Robert went and got me some new Exhaust nuts tonight so that is off the list now.
I Got the engine buttoned up tonight and plumbed and the new hood on also.This isnt the one I was gonna use but you cant pass up a trade for a stock hood although it took a 4.5 in angle grinder and a few cutoff wheels to make it fit the Mercedes TD under the hood as the Radiator was in the middle of the core support insted of behind it.Now to sand it and paint it flat/semigloss black and make this pig run tomorrow or Sun at the latest.You can see the broken parts of the hood in the closeups.
