            I wasn't suprised it could pull it. I was suprised that it handled it as well as it did. I figured its basically has the same drivetrain as a 1/2 ton pickup so I should be able to pull the car trailer from time to time.

              Well I got my intake swapped this weekend. I swapped it because there was a oil leak in the front and back of it. I had a 74 2 barrel intake sittin in the shed, so I blocked off the egr ports, and made some exhaust crossover plugs too. Also added a rear water crossover because the older intakes don't have them. Than I put a 3 inch tall air filter in it too.

              When I put the filter on I pulled that crap off the bottom of the hood, and I found a build sheet! I ended up ripping it in a couple places. But its still readable. Maybe I'll get a pic later.

                    Interesting finding a build sheet under the hood insulation.

                          they pay by the 100 pounds here for ferrous metals.......$7.50 is the price per 100........prob a hell of alot more cause out there in nd the scrap needs to be trucked to one of the coasts for shipment to china.....the yard we use owns their own trucks and ship.

                            Picked up a new Crane Powermax cam today for $100. Its rpm range is 2000-5000 rpm. Its new, and still in the box. Should work good in the motor that's in the car right now.

                              Ok I lied. The box the cam is in, says. MAXIMUM VELOCITY PLUS
                              HMU-272-2
                              2600-3000 RPM CRUISE SPEED

                              The cam wasmade in 94. And its never been installed. It has lifters, assembly lube, oil additve, rocker arm shims and some lock nuts(don't know what they are for). Looks like I might need some 4.10s instead of 3.73s for my rear axle. Lol
