Contemplated future options for my truck. I am set on buying my wheels/tires first. Just can't decide on what kind of motor...
Buy a zz4 crate motor, or something similar.
OR,
jump into an lq9 6.0 liter and prepare for some LONG weekends and nights...
decisions, decisions.

Which ever on is great but a friend of mine jus got done with his 5.3 swap into an 87 chevy and that thing hauls. Ran a mid 13 second pass the night of this vid. I can just imagine a warmed over 6.0

Too bad the camera kept going out of focus.

Friday night I finished installing crown in my basement and put some finishing touches on a mantel taht I built. Then I set up a saltwater aquarium (I must have needed another expensive hobby

).

Saturday I spent some time at the pet store trying to figure out what the hell I was doing. $400 later I had the gravel, rock, salt, and test kits that I needed to get started. Now the tank cycling begins and so does the waiting period. With nothing left to do with the tank, I wired some outside lights and cleaned the garage.

Today we had our nephews over and watched Cars. Basically sat around all day playing with the kids and having fun.

Dident do too much since all the snow has put a damper on everything. I did finally got another tailgate on my truck took it off my donor box. 80+ tailgate so I had to switch all the hardware to get it to work.

I also figured since there was a good amount of ice and snow I'd teach my little sis how to drive on the snow. She did really well with the subaru but I cant have her thinking all cars drive like that in the ice and snow.
