Title: My new project **UPDATE** Post by: IXIswamperIXI on April 21, 2010, 09:53:22 PM Well it's an old project that is finally starting to come around. It's a Chevy 2.8L V6 to go back into my buggy. I still have a long way to go but the closer I get the more excited I get LOL I think for most people it wouldn't do anything for them (because its so small) but I like it. A nice new fresh motor for the ol' buggy. 8)

Title: Re: My new project Post by: IXIswamperIXI on April 22, 2010, 08:36:45 PM Thanks for the replies! I am "dry fitting" everything I have to make sure I have all the bolts and nuts and...... of course I am a few short ::) Went to sunshine ace today to get what I needed so far. I still have a ways to go. The big items I need are the distributor, carb, and headers. The rest will be small things. That motor that was in there was old and had thousands of miles and still lasted about 11 years. With a fresh motor it should last through my kids ;D Anyway heres some pics of the buggy this motor is going in. (I am sure some of you have seen it many times on here LOL)

Some of you may remember a few years ago I was trying to sell this buggy. Money isnt really better but with our two sons (2.5 and 9 months) I decided I may loose everything but I am keeping this buggy for them. No bank, landlord, irs, or Obama will be able to take it away from those boys. Anyway, sorry for the rant.

(ie: wire holding the spark plug wires up, vicegrips on the fuel return, vacuum advance hose had to be lengthened, vicegrips holding the power steering pump pulley from rattling, yada yada)
