Thanks, I'm trying.

How soon 'til it's done?

Hell if i know, if I have the time then I don't have the money, and if I have a little money then i certainly don't have the time.
A lot of things I wanted to do myself and you can all give your opinion on this, but maybe I'm being ignorant about it.
Example, I have active toe elims and they aren't in the car because I wanted to be the one to put them in, now I don't feel my welding skills are up to snuff for something like this so they aren't in. I do know plenty of people that would weld these in and other things for me but instead I just put it off. I don't know at this point, i do know it sucks having things sit here or be crappy like my exhaust.
Driving, it needs HG, injectors, swap T-case and I should be driving it, oh and tune of course for injectors and new head and such.

Lookin good. If u need a hand tomorrow during the day gimme a call.

For sure, I should be out there in the afternoon say about 2ish.

I have a stock 2G intake attached to a 2G head I got from desolate on here, it should be ready to just throw on, but we will see.

Cams, I don't have $$$ for and in my quest to buy things once I will just get cams once I build a motor, plus cam swaps are stupid easy the right way. 30mins maybe?

Hopefully I'll get some more done today, we will see though I have to go out in a bit here.

[JET]

Once you get it running then head over here and we can weld up your toe elim's.

Nice progress! Keep up the good work!

4/7/12:
Didn't do a lot to the car, well kinda. Today Jesse cleaned up the garage and I helped while working on the car, it feels a lot nicer and like things move a lot quicker out there.

Anywho yesterday I forgot to add something that I found when I pulled the head:

Well I'm not sure how the car felt about that or how long it was like that, it couldn't of been too long actually, 1 because I didn't really drive the car that much last year and 2 I'm pretty sure that I pulled it sometime last year.

Anyway, I'm in need of an insert.

I also found a great deal on what is easily the best susp. setup for a 1g under $1600, Koni yellows with GC coilovers loaded with eibach springs, helper springs and torrington bearings for the helpers. So I pulled my stock susp. yesterday too.
No more monster truck/4x4!!!

I also painted the top core support, here is before and after:
