i lost that when the block wasn't original anymore, kinda sucked the motovation for that right outa me. funny how things change huh?

it wasn't originally a 374...but it is now. i did at least make sure the block was the correct date code still...55, just from a 400. the trans is the correct 55 housing as well, not 56.

i think the only thing really noticable is the stainless and probably what it will sound like, other then that it'll be as close as i can get it. oh and maybe the petronix, but i did turn the coil over so you couldn't see the sticker.

contemplating making my own fuel pump inlet hose....cause 30 bucks for the one with the correct crimped ends on it isn't sounding too pleasing right now. 500 a month to daycare and nursing school on top of that....that'll suck the motovation right outa you to be original too. i still want to work on my car or i'll go nuts.

still gonna be original inside the interior and the paint job, etc.

i think this is probably as extreme as it will get right here.

probably why you and a handful of others are the only ones still around on this blog. which i do appreciate those that still chime in. cause i can get pretty lost sometimes.

sometimes it upsets me that its not 100% authentic...but i gotta do what i can to keep this thing moving and to not loose motovation or it will just sit there and rot and be all for not.

i know your just razzin me though.


edit: crap...now i depressed myself.
