My friends truck, good news and bad news!!!

Phew, finally got caught up looking through the posts here so I can post again without getting to confused. First the good news:

My friend finally got the V8/TH350 in place of the former I6/3 speed column. Got the motor running and tuned it a bit. (I was there helping him, and now know what it feels like to get my hand hit by the engine fan while its running. Doh!) He took it to the loacl cruise night a week and a half ago, and I asked how he moved it without the proper column or driveshaft. He said he made his own driveshaft, by cuttin two and welding them together at the correct length temporarily so he could move it around the yard (and get it to the show that night), and he hooked up the TH350 to the 3 speed column, and it worked great (just no shift indicator). I didn't know you can do that.

Bad news to follow on the next post.
