It's the weekend, your plans.

I've been sick all freaking week and I've felt useless cause of it. I'm going to make it up this weekend.

Heres the plan guys. Put down ONE thing that you want to get completed for each day or for the complete weekend.

I know most of us can write a bible size book on what has to be done but instead of consentrating on a thousand things lets just deal with one.

So for me.

Saturday - Complete taking out floor pan.

Sunday - Complete fitting in repo floor pan parts.

Simple, if you get it done ahead of time well then surpirse us on monday. with any extra work you did.

So who's down?

Re: It's the weekend, your plans.

By the end of the weekend I need to finish installing my engine.

- Bolt on headers
- Hook up clutch linkage
- Finish making power steering bracket (Alternator is already done)
- Bolt on ALL front drive accessories
- Lengthen wiring harness (I installed a long water pump, which I wish I hadn't, so the alternator is on the passenger side)
- Install distibutor and finish making plug wires
- Mount coil to inner fender
- Plumb new fuel lines
- I might make new battery cables

The only thing I need is the spin on oil filter adapter. The dealer has them for 50 bucks and Summit has it for 30. I really hate that they just don't include one with the engine. If you live in SA and have one, let me know.

Re: It's the weekend, your plans.

I wish I had the time. I have been so busy with the new baby and such. I can honestly say I have not touched the 2wd in a year. I wish I could finish the HEI and get it to run. I dropped in the dist last year and havn't touched the truck since. Pathetic.

Re: It's the weekend, your plans.

Nothing planned at this point. But I'm sure I won't get it all done this weekend. It just happens that way.

Yep, nights for me, too. I'm burned out on it. I don't sleep very well during the day...

BTW, what part of ONE PER DAY do some of us not understand?

Alright the engine is in, not much longer now.
