So, yesterday was trans. cooling lines, didn't think they would fit since I changed the cross member. Cut them in half and offered them up, seems they might have fit after all, but for now, I'll just add a piece of rubber hose and clamps. I'll deal with a better fix when I get it in my shop. Seems like we could be close to making noise ( His term)

I may just plug up the trans pan and deal with it later, since it is stopping me from firing up the motor.

These guys have been great to work with, fun shop, with lots of banter back and forth. Dale is just a wealth of information, nice to have someone to bounce your ideas off of and keep me on topic (just focus on what needs to be done to get the engine to run)
