Thanks to all who have helped along the way

Just want to say thanks to the people on the board who have helped me in the past.  TGPilot, Idbeast, JeffM, Chris A, Invasion 1, and if I left anyone out special thanks to all of you  :icon_biggrin:  And thanks to anyone else for tidbits of info. 

      From removing the motor and rebuilding it to replacing bulbs behind the speedometer this is one of the best, most informative message boards on the web.  I belong to Hybridz.org which is a board that is dedicated to the progressive modification of Datsun/Nissan Z's and they will make you feel small sometimes as a newbie.  This site has never made me feel small no matter how basic the question I may have asked.  It is weird selling the last of my TGP parts  :icon_cry: that have sat in the garage for the past year or two--I always thought that I would do another TGP but family, work, and all the other day to day stuff takes up the time that I used to dedicate towards this all consuming hobby. 
       I am building a '77 Datsun 280z now with 350 SBC  :icon_twisted: and it is even more time consuming than ever.  I will miss the comaraderie that I have enjoyed on here  :icon_cry: but will surely stop back in and visit from time to time and maybe even post a snapshot of my car if it ever gets out of this bare metal/motor on engine stand stage it has been in for the last 6 months.   

Again thanks to all those who have helped and keep this site going cause here pretty soon somebody will notice this car for what it really was/is...a diamond in the rough. :icon_mrgreen:
Have fun and God Bless all of you,
  Dale Malcolm.

The V-8 swap is not as hard as people think--there is a company called Jags That Run (JTR) who have swapped the SBC 350 in just about anything you can imagine.  they are the ones who started the Chevy S-10 V-8 swap books (I believe summit racing catalogs have these books in them)and have made numerous books on everything 350  small block chevy swaps/etc.  Check the website out, $10,000 can put you down into the high 10's low 11's if you use your money wisely.  
    OK--I'm running off-topic here so I'll stop.......
