i can deliver (for fee of course,  my rig gets 8-9mpg loaded) within a reasonable distance,  i have a dually and a car hauler.

buffalo would be a reasonable distance,  NYC would not.

i can't stomach driving it in the cleveland road salt all winter so i need something that can do that,  and be a tank in the snow instead of tractionless,  and something i can comfortably and reliably pimp on road trips.  basically i need my wagon back but unless i buy my dad something to replace it with that won't happen.

this one can get deleted,  i returned them saturday.

well.  i can return them for about $230 credit after shipping.  so i guess that could be a counter offer.  i had several "soon as my tax refund gets here" offers but those are always BS.

sorry,  busy as all hell here.  you know how it goes running your own business.

my buddy thought he burned his 282 up in his 90 Z24 by running no fluid for a long time(gee whats that clacking noise?) but tossed in some new synchromesh and has been driving it for 5 years no trouble,  so if you have not tried just putting in fluid,  give it a shot.

brand new C302 yellowtop fuel injectors.  just purchased and received from fiveomotorsports.com but i was impatient and wanted them saturday so i paid a tad more to get them locally after i ordered these.

$250 SHIPPED in USA/Canada - this is what they sell for on his site before shipping.  i paid around $268 with shipping.

well im sick of these crappy automatics,  Turbosedan already said the trans is different so obviously im not going to use it.  Ill just rape that 89 white GP and take everything.  thanks for help for now im sure ill need more. 

take EVERYTHING you can even if you think you may not need it.  make sure to get the simple forgettable things like the console bracket.

you will not regret the manual swap,  i just did mine and it is a blast to drive.

this developed yesterday morning - on my way home after the car sat all night it was down on power.  i installed new plugs/wires(r42ts delco plugs @.045"/accel 8mm spiral core wires) and took it for a test ride .then as i went around the block it developed into trying to cut out when i hit a certain throttle position or rpm.  when i got home it stalled.  when warm it will not or barely restart.  when cold it will start and idle fine,  but when i hit the gas at all it will cut out immediately.  even a slight tap on the pedal.

i tested fuel pressure last night and thought i found the culprit and put in a new walbro pump,  and tested again to no pressure only to find my tester bad.  new tester shows 50psi @ cranking and when the pump turns off it stays at a steady 41psi without draining down so it appears the regulator is good.  while warmed up and not restarting,  the car restarted immediately on starting fluid.

the car has run great since wednesday and i've put about 500 miles on it so far.
