    Yeah, the minutes become hours!

    Another of those kind of days today. Changed out the hard line connections for tranny coolant to 3/8" barbed tube and got them plumbed. Learned that it's best to measure close for the rated rubber hose at nearly $4 a foot! At least I could use a piece of the left over for my crankcase breather to carb hose!

    Plug wires - why don't they make wires with the HEI end straight instead of 90! With #1 and #2 adjacent and needing to cross, and #3 and #6 adjacent and needing to cross, and with an air cleaner and firewall that leave almost zero room it's a PITB! If the wires came straight up it would be so, so much easier! Just like the old female cap connectors, wires straight up!

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    A box that takes pictures and a privy in the house? REALLY, can you imagine how big that box would be and how the house would smell.... I believe you've been watching a little too much SciFi.
