Re: very frustrated

Hey everyone, so here's an update. I ended up pulling the engine and tranny out to replace the oil pan gasket and flexplate. Once it was out we saw the heads needed a valve job and the bearings were pretty scuffed. So off to be rebuilt she went. Money's been tight so I spent what I can cleaning up the engine bay and cleaning all the accessories because I can't just go buy everything new. Long story short, engine is in looks good and I just have a few loose ends, mainly a freakin starter that refuses to mesh with a flexplate. That was the original problem. I purchased a starter bracket from the oc truck shop and the holes don't line up. I'm drilling a hole into that bracket to see if I can make it work. I've been working on getting it drivable for the past week straight after work. Any advice will be appreciated.
