3 broken nails later - junkyard run...

Sumbish that harness is purdy. My pull a part would never have one that complete unless I was sitting there watching them set the truck down. Thanks again Retro, You're Awesome dude !!!

Anytime man! Like i said, besides my thumb, there were only 3 casualties that are very easily fixed and they were only because 1. I forgot my 18mm wrench for the bellhousing ground and 2. i also forgot a 5/16s socket for the starter but that wire was already bared and mangled before i got to it.

You're making me feel bad about the thumb now. Bad enough you broke 3 nails yesterday and now a buggered up thumb. I know how you girls are about having pretty hands. Get Well Soon !!! Put some Neosporin on it, it heals faster that way.

I'm debating going back next week or month and getting a TPI unit that was there. The car was burned but it doesn't appear the fire was hot enough to damage the unit itself, just the plastics.

Gonna go TPI in a Square?

 

[RetroC10Sport]

Yes sir, it's a good torquey engine, simple and they just look bad ass to me. It's not going to be a race truck, just a cruiser so if it's just a 305 TPI, no biggie to me...

I'm amazed that you didn't already know that

That's probably the only reason they added the option for the last two model years. They basically just used what was already laying around.

Now I recall, it was on Captkock's board that I learned of power dumbos. Some guy posted a pic of some he said were power dumbos and were off a square but he never posted a pic of wires coming off them and they didn't have the black trim. I'm 99.9999999999% sure he was BSing and had a set of fixed dumbos.

I agree they look bad ass and mean. It will good under the hood of a Square. And Unique too. I am sure will raise some eyebrows.

Soak it in cider! It'll get well QUICK!

I was just reading that thread yesterday, I could post the link but I don't know if the Shagster would be cool with that.

The power dumbos ALL have the black plastic trim. No trim, no power.
