I have a cherry picker and.......a lovely Ford 460 and C6 that would look cool in the 'ol girl. I already offered dean a 460, no tranny though. I had 2 of them layin in the garage for the longest time. I think he's afraid of it, he knows he's too heavy on the skinny pedal yeah... already busted a dana 30 with a 318... can't imagine what i'd break with a 460 untill i have the funds to do axle swaps front and rear, i think i'll stick to "stock" powertrain for now.

update - 05/02/08pretty much have the passanger side fenderwell cleaned out... removed the following: - battery tray
- power distribution box
- main power harness (from batter to PDB)
- ECU
- coolant over-flow bottle
- some vacume lines
- some other wiring
- some a/c lines
- some other small brackets
it's looking good so far. hope to work on the driver-side next. want to get all the ABS stuff out of there. probably just drop down to a standard break booster. thinking about keeping the windshield washer system, but i doubt i'll reuse the factory setup, so that will get axed as well basically philosophy is the less under the hood, the better... with a carbed 4.2 running propane i won't need much. for now i am going to keep the standard steering setup and leave the stock steering box. most likely will run a CJ p/s pump though... i doubt the ZJ one will work on a 4.2 motor... but then again, who knows. once i sell the spare motor, i will be able to roll the body out into the driveway and hose the d**n thing off. hoping then to shift the tear down to the inside and start removing the seats, dash, and other interior stuff. just need to work on getting the engine/trans/tcase out... and then start work deconstructing the 4.2 block and get it off to the shop to get cleaned up, tested, bored over and honed. need to get some work done to the head as well. at least the monkey work is free... just need a f*cking job so i can pay for some of the "upgrades" i want to run
