The rest of the goodies have finally came in as of this morning.  An 800lb transmission jack and engine support bar from HFT.  This week also saw the delivery of the Yank SS4000 torque converter and SFI rated flexplate.

Now if I can ever kick this sinus head cold that has been dragging me down all week and sapping all my energy, I can begin tearing the car apart and get the new stuff installed.  Hopefully if everything goes right I should be able to get the work done in 2-3 solid days of taking my time.  But when does anything ever go according to plan right?
