It's been a crazy week, but I'm back -or will be once I land in about an hour. Saw several DSM, more than a dozen GTRs, one poor gen 2 monty that didn't sell for $500 in the shootout parking lot, and got to drive an 89 Delica around Toronto a bit. Now onto the business of engine swapping.
Tacos might be tricky, but I'll grab drinks and pay for lunch. Looking to start around 8am. Address is 4909 W Crocus Dr, 85306.
Donor should show up tomorrow. Looks like we're beginning our descent into Phoenix, gotta run.
Thanks!

The Dukar should be here any minute. Thanks in advance to everyone coming to help. I've missed driving my RocÝnante!

Any tools needs? It's a pretty long drive from my home to yours so if there's something I can bring to help, obviously it's best to know now. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Cone to think of it, if we had a second toolbox around, we could get both engines ready at the same time. I pretty much just have a yellow box full of loose tools at this point. Full garage inventory clean had been pushed back to winter, ya know? Thanks!

DUDE! We all made this happen somehow! The mysterious and bearded John, plus DR1665 and I drank Mt. Dew and tea and Gatorade, ate burritos and somehow managed to pull 2 engines, put one in the other host and then when Toasty and Pa_Jero rolled in they used their KUNG FU to make that motor purr. Successful day! One day successful engine swap, UNF!
