        Been busy!!

        - Bought some sheets of 1/4" ABS plastic for gauge panels
        - AEM Uego wideband
        - Autometer Z series water gauge
        - Engine is buttoned up and turns over seamlessly
        - picked up some bulk head connectors for ease of use involving removing the harness (thanks and props to KBScobravert!)

            Between the 40 male/female pins, tool, both male and female connector I was right at $90. for the amount of in/out this drivetrain will see it's money well spent and headache removal WELL earned.

              Not surprising at all. When I lived in an apartment management would hire tow companies to come in and put big florescent orange fuck you warning stickers on the side windows if a car did not have inspection or emissions stickers... or flat tires.

                Well all cars are tagged and inspected and tires are full and they can all piss off and sleep through a house fire

                This is the same complex that's maintenance crew robbed me (LITERALLY) and lied to their attorney to cover up a faulty garage door that allowed the thieves access.

                  Why don't you just rent a house if that's the case? I lived in an apartment for a whole 9 months somehow before I decided fuck a whole bunch of this and got a house with my friend.

                    Except for snapping a 21mm IMPACT socket and picking fork...

                      Contact Carolyn at Ladd Industries. I have two sets of 31pin in aluminum and the pins. Cost per set is around $40-45 straight from Ladd.

                      • I know, the Fram starter filter is junk. A Motorcraft will replace it after break-in. Thanks to Paul (Green Bullitt) for stopping by and shooting the bull.

                            That's all it's for. Motorcraft goes on after 50 miles.

                            • More fun stuff. The LADD bulkhead connectors showed up, so i am going to drill out the firewall this weekend and start re-pinning the harness. The AEM Uego shows up tomorrow, got my water temp gauge to go with the oil pressure and boost/vac (all of them Autometer Z series). Scrubbed her down and prepped the block. Now she's Ford-worthy.
