    I just thought I would fill yall in that I now have my freshly rebuilt ( 30 over) buick 350 in my jeep and running like a champ. what a pain it was to figure out the fireing order to hook up all the spark plug wires. I will post pictures in the next few days here as no one want to read about something and not see it. Ended up opting out on the hooker super comp headers that I have becouse I did not want to end up destroying a set of really good headers just to hope that they would fit when I was done. Now have just the manifolds with some custom 12" glasspacks that I welded up. Turned out real nice and sounds great too. Not to loud. Now just need to put grill and driverside fender back on, put on my new twin stick that i made, and then see how she moves. Thank you to all of you that have helped me along the way on this jeep.

    You have an AWESOME machine! That Buick 350 is COOL!

    I'd like to see pictures of your floor around the SM465 after you get it done.

    It looks like you should have a CV joint behind your D300!

    It's great to see pictures of folks using their Jeeps like they should!

    Keep up the great work.

    Thanks a lot. Yeah i need to get some more newer pitures up becouse that one of the 350 is not even the motor I have in there now. That one turned out to have a cracked water jacket. I am currently in the process of buyin a new camera, and will get some pictures of what it looks like now. Now that I have all my gauges, seats, air compressor/tank, and all that installed. Am havin a bit of an issue with cooling now, but will put in a 160 deg thermostat on monday an see what happens. Thanks again. Zach
