If all goes to plan, I (we) will sleep in a lot starting around age 52.

Well, 12 months and 92 gear installs later, the SRT is back on the lift.
Thanks to @thebrotherinlaw for swinging by and helping.
Finished up the bottom end and got the heads on yesterday. Gonna button up the external items and drop it in this weekend.
Its already sold in principle and the profit goes towards my WOD build next year.
Bonus, Ranger got its parking spot back.

Got it fully assembled and ready to install.
My toxic trait is not asking for help. So I dropped it in and got all the underbody stuff buttoned up.
Will grab oil and some misc junk tomorrow and fire it up (assuming my lower back doesn't kick me in the nuts). Today was a loooong day in the shop

Local small time butcher shop sells ground brisket on the weekends. About $7.50/lb. Good and fatty!
Roasted some whole poblanos on the grill, then you peel them under cool water while the burgers are cooking. Covered the burger and peppers with thiccccc sliced cheese from Ingle's
Then reply to NC4X4 posts while passing gas.
If any of you down state folks are in the Asheville area. You gotta hit M and M Meats in Hendersonville. Superb butcher shop.

That place is awesome. I used to pick out the best ribeye and theyād shave it thin on a deli slicer to make Phillies, prices are great too, and you can order in advance whatever cut you want how thick you want etc

I'm not sure. I do know they cut bacon in house. So they probably wouldn't be able to ask them.

Less butcher shop, more 500 HP engine stuff
Just fired it up! No noises, no surprizes, no drama.
It ran about 10 seconds then shut itself down because the idiot owner forgot to program out the MDS delete.
I'll do that after work and let her run a while.
Woohoo!

Well, I ordered the wrong tuner. But the vendor, Modern Muscle Extreme, is sending the correct one and talking the old one back. Sadly, I won't have shop time until next week.
I'll go ahead and button up the rest of the install and make vroom sounds next Monday evening.

Got it fully back together and coolant bled, fluids topped off, etc. Just waiting on the tuner to arrive later this week
Kinda hate to see it go. But I don't need ANOTHER vehicle to maintain and insure.
The new buyer will address the small cosmetic stuff and make it sharp.
