Looks like you keep plenty of extra nuts and bolts on your battery in case you need them. :lol: Talk about preparedness.

man that memories right there. it looks my old engine bay, well with a bit more wires and hoses. but the duct tape on the heater box, i think i rocked that for like 2 years.

best way to clean an engine bay up....tear everything out including motor and start over and only put in there waht you need. then you wont have all the red, yellow, black, blue, green and whatever color wires all over the place. black and red ftw

old motor (#3 i think)

yeah, Ducktape FTW, lol, i'm considering getting a HVAC delete plate...but i still want heat, so maybe if i come across a heater only box in the junkyard, i'll snag that up

WTF happened with your #3???

popped a headgasket somehow and it became a milkshake. it was mid february when it happened and it was my daily driver. it really sucked cause it was a cold chicago winter and i was working with minimal hand tools outside. no torque wrench or sequence. threw the gaskets on, literally wiped all that stuff out, used some valuecraft oil to rinse everything off, bolted it back together. then went and beat the crap out if till i got the next motor, which is currently out and all torn down


btw a friend of mine has a heat only box out of his 79 bu, i think hes looking for $50-60 plus shipping or somethin around there. i can ask if your interested
