Thanks for all the nice words guys. I appreciate that.

As far as how hard it was to drop it in.....well....let's just say we spent a few nights up to 3 am playing around with it. I've had it in and out now about 15 times. It took us a while the first time because the shorty headers were hitting the manual rack, so I switched back to the pwr steering and still had to shim the engine mounts with some washers. But it was all worth it. Plus, we didn't have much space so we put the tranny and engine in as one unit, which made things a little more difficult until we got the hang of it. I'll post my timeslips ASAP. I tried a few days ago but all it did was lock up my PC. Thanks again!
