    Well it's finally running!!!!

    Well after way too long the wait is over.


    This is after drilling the TB so it would idle.

    Ran great for a while. Took it up to get gas and take a test spin...the trans cooler line into the radiator blew out the nut and dumped all the trans fluid on the ground.
    It's gonna be towed to my cousins trans shop tomorrow to have a good look over and make sure it's all alright. Hopefully nothing was damaged in the trans.

    It's like no matter how careful or take my time, something crappy happens. But this part I'm not touching...truck should be at the trans shop any minute now...if not already there...and it's gonna be taken care of.

    May end up having to add a new TB to my list soon...I think the hole in the TB may be too big...at idle in gear it feels like it's got a little throttle when I let off the brake. Oh well guess I'll get an 85mm BBK from orileys.
