PNW folks Work day at Simons - help me get my beast running

[Renny_D]

I need help from any PNW folks. As some of you know I've been trying to get my beast back up and running after being down for almost a year. Between honey-do's kids and a new position at work I've only been able to touch it once in a while. I've asked for some help this weekend and Simon has agreed to use his place. I'm going to get as much done over the next few nights then have it towed to Simons place to wrench on it Saturday the 25th. Any help would be appreciated. Hopefully I won't have any sick kid derailments this time. Things left to do:

Swap tranny - accumulator mod done. (done)
Remote mount battery.(done)
Check oiling system for turbo.
Connect up all the new intercooler tubing - cuts and routing all done. (done)
Fab up radiator mounts and mount radiator. Using the V6 radiator - much taller and wider. (Done)
Mod upper radiator hose to fit.(done)
Mount oil cooler and fab lower mount for intercooler.(done)
Assemble and wrap down pipe (done)
Attach down pipe to current exhaust.(done)
replumb nitrous system and rewire it. (done)
Mod Bumper for airflow (done)
reassemble front end. (almost done)
(added) Mount efan(done)
wire kill switch (to do)

Start and drive with big grin. Not done yet but soon.

I'll do as much as I can before then and will mark things off as done and add anything I spot that I didn't think of when I wrote this.

So anyone want to help turn a wrench?
Address is:
33914 rushing lane
scappoose or 97056
first right driveway on HWY 30 right after MP 23. Pull in and go under the railroad tracks and then go right not straight. Two miles on the right after the last light north out of scappoose also right after the columbia memorial cemetery. I'm planning on getting there about 9 am or sooner if I can. I'll buy pizza a soda for anyone who makes it.

Call me if you can help 503-519-1849

If all goes really well maybe we can even go drag racing that evening.:oogle::oogle:

Thanks

I'm moving ahead and it looks like I'll be done with everything but the tranny by about noon tomorrow. AAA are being aholes about the tow so that is now iffy but I'm still doing everything I can to finish this beast by tomorrow. Give me a call if you are near West Linn and could help.

thanks

Hi, never made it to Simons. Kyle came by and we did the tranny. I've done almost everything but fill with fluids, check for leaks and start it. I welded up the exhaust last night but I'm gonna have to figure out a remote oil filter set up. The down pipe is right against the oil filter. I have heat wrap on it but I'm still not digging the idea of pulling the down pipe to change the filter. I also have to rewire my trunk mounted battery for a kill switch. I was told I can't run at the track without it. I'll have pics of everything in a bit.

Thanks
