Enjoy, Jim!
I know what we are NOT doing today :)

So does the 44 get gutted today?

You think your roads are mucked up..........good thing i got my trailer off the hill early yesterday.
By late afternoon the frost went out on most of the town road. I could hold a mud bog.
Froze last night, but it's 40* and sunny .......driveway may get interesting later today.

Nope the old man is pretty sore from yesterday. Lt1 is out, may as well rebuild first. This isn't a yank and drop sloppy kind of transplant.

Yeah I hate the spring freeze/thaw thing. We just have tons of sand and salt laying around here.

Just a question but what are you guys planning for a clutch and trans?

Conversion kit comes with clutch, bell housing. Stock tranny should be fine... It's 30 years old so it could probably use a rebuild as well. Check out the kits, Texas Performance Concepts or Renegade.

I drove the fbird yesterday before the gutting....holy s.
I broke it to hubs that I'm buying another 944 before the year is out and he isn't allowed to have any Vested interest in it :)

He is aware that the entire front chassis has to be removed to do that job and not reinstalled until after the engine is bolted in................right?
fun fun fun

That's how he gets his rocks off. Always has. I imagine one day he'll realize he's too old to do tricky complicated crap.

Too much salt still on the roads to bring out my 911. My Cayenne unceremoniously lost all its coolant yesterday...so I guess I will be taking that apart today to see what broke. I have done little work on it myself...only replacing the battery (under the driver's seat, no less) and a headlight and taillight bulb (none of which were easy...so I don't relish this. All the pluming is well hidden under covers and the MAF.

Janet...maybe you ought to see if a 600HP Cayenne turbo engine will shoehorn into that 944.

I doubt it. I am 48 and still get off on electrical issues

realllly? Does Beth wanna trade? :D

I hate to work on cars now. The jobs just keep piling up. One breaks....I just drive another one. I don't even like to wash them like I used to. Maybe things will change after I retire.

When Beth turned fifty I tried to trade her in for two twenty five year olds, that didn't work too well

Welcome to my world

Morning all. Yes time loss sucks.

I'm out of here. Take care. You can find me on FB if you care.

um.... is there a back story?

See the skinny jean thread I would imagine...
