    Nothing special. No that's not pullys that's my PS pump bracket.
    Went cheap and figure if I really don't like them after a while I can always swap them out for a complete 4.3L vortec.

    Kinda hard to work on a vehicle when your 120 miles away from your vehicle and am busy all the time.

    The first time I've seen your jeep Jeff. Just wanted to say it looks like a good start to a build. I hear you with the no time.

    I really only fish when I am in Norfolk. The Jeep is in Richmond 2 hours away. If my Jeep was here I probably still would not be able to work on it since I only have time to fish at night lately, too late to work on a vehicle in a city and grind and weld and make tons of noise.

    Yeah it is taking up a parking spot at my parents house. No way Chia will ever hang out at my apartment, just don't trust the neighbors enough.

    Finally moved back to my Jeep last weekend. Spend the last 2.5 years+ living 106.4 miles away, not that I was counting. Working on finding a real job and working at my old college job right now. This week is busy but I hope to get something done one morning, even if it is bolt the front bumper back on.
