New Buggy

looking good man, i can't wait to see it. Let me know if you need any help, or advice. i need to come up and check it out
 
put some new pics up of the power plant.. the only thing that i can see that could be a problem is the motor is so tall thats its hard to see over intercooler and radiator
 
this thing is going to be sweet. Where did you pick up the engine from. I have been seriously thinking about stuffing one in my toyota but i cant find one at a decent price.
 
i found mine from the merita bread company ... the best place to get them is at dovebid.com they auction them once a month there i have seen them go as cheap as $1000 .... thats for the whole truck
 
damn that is pretty cheap. ill check that out. thanks.
 
hey whenever you get a chance could you get me some measurements of the engine (height, length, width). Im gonna do some measurements on my truck to see if it would even fit.
 
i put some pics up in putfile of my heim joints. i thought about the rod ends i would use for a couple weeks and finally went with the qa1 rod ends from ballistic manfacturing. they are on sell. they are 1 1/4 shank and 1" ball. without seeing these i was worried about the quality but after they arrived they looked really strong and the finish is good .. also the weld in bungs are homeade. they were just 1 1/4 nuts and i had a neighbor turn them down for 1 1/2 ID tubing.
