There's an '84 Fiero with a 3800SC sitting beside it that need to be married up and tested on the road.  Such nice weather demands it!   Wink  It sucks having to take the Blazer to work (no offence to anyone who has a Blazer...it's that I, like the rest of you, would rather be in a Fiero).

Just kidding about rushing you!  I'm just feeling really good about you putting the engine in my car and how AWESOME it is going to be when it's back on the road.  As much as my wife may frown upon it, I know she also sees how much enjoyment I get out of this...I'm sure I'm like a kid waiting for Santa Claus.   Cheesy

Cheers, Derek

You guys..........  Cry  Azn  Afro

BTW, anyone who buys a POS like a Blazer or Jimmy needs a brain scan.  Mine is an electrical nightmare.

Hey!  My Blazer is my winter vehicle!

I bought it 'cause the price was right (and my wife made me...you can read another thread on that here somewhere).   Cheesy

Thankfully, we also have a Honda Element, so cars breaking down don't affect my ability to get to work (except when they happen along the way).   Tongue

Cheers, Derek

PS  The only problem with my Blazer is that it is hard to get the key out of the ignition..have to play around with the shifter for a few minutes some times.

Engine part of the harness is completed along with the nounting brackets. Getting ready to mount onto the cradle but having a hard time finding a cradle strong enough. Any one know of a good cradle available. Dan

Just dropped off my old spoiler (the snow shovel) to Dan today also, I had it repainted for you to match the current blue earlier in the week.  We spent some time removing the luggage rack tonight, and should be able to mount it tomorrow for you. 

I guess the only problem now is that the first test drive will have to be over at the Mountainview AFB, cause that wing's gonna give you too much lift for normal roads Smiley

Heh, just kidding of course.  Or am I?  Wink

Brad...you're scaring me! 

If I lived in North Bay still, that snow shovel spoiler would come in handy if mounted with some sort of quick release mechanism that would allow me to pop it off and attach it to a hockey in order to get the car in and out of the driveway.  Wink

Cheers, Derek

PS  How's the job hunt coming along?

I'm a Sens fan too (sorry Dan....never have I cheered for Montreal..well, except when they play Toronto).  I can't believe the Sens fell behind and trail 3 - 1.   Cry
