Were those tools part of a Craftsman set? If so, what set(s) did you end up getting...

...I've got a Craftsman catalog right now that I'm looking through, just getting some feedback. Thanks.

For the track it is okay, The tracks are gererally cleaner than the roads... One rock between the belt and a pulley and you will be crying......

::slams head on desk::

uhhh, what would happen if one were to forget to use the 1mm thick plastic seals, and use just the new big plastic BS seal, and all the rest new...?

It hasn't leaked yet.... ::crosses fingers::

I hate it when that happens...parts left over after a build/rebuild. I'm glad I'm not the only one...

Bringing back up a dying thread, but looks like you have the vacuum lines on the throttle body reversed... just did mine, and had to check yours against a buddies to make sure I didn't screw up. now the question begs, does it matter? FWIW, beautiful, and post up a ROUGH estimate of what it cost for everything. Break out the zinc coating, as my idiot self attempted to polish "something" with the coating on it, and now it's silver, and not near a pretty...
