[QUOTE="Walt Jaquith, post: 425874, member: 18654"] Last few pictures. I've got 75 miles on the new drivetrain, and things are starting to settle in. I like it. Not too much power for a short wheelbase and high COG, but enough. Leave it in 3rd gear and it's spunky. Drop it into overdrive and it cruses at 65 comfortably. The engine compartment. Lots of room... [ATTACH type="full"]115937[/ATTACH] I replaced the funky expansion tank; that was just a temp to get running. Skid plate modded for the 700R4 tranny: [ATTACH type="full"]115938[/ATTACH] Needed a new tranny hump cover. Need to figure out what to do about a shifter boot... [ATTACH type="full"]115939[/ATTACH] Y'know how you always have a few fasteners left over? This is what that looks like when you start with 3 engines and make one running rig. <voxHanSolo> Don't worry; she'll hold together... [ATTACH type="full"]115940[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
