BUSY BUSY!
No real blog posts since we moved. Of course - the fact that my Mac is still in its box tells you how much how i have working on unpacking my office. I have moved on to more pressing projects. I finally located a wrecked subaru as a donor car for the vanagon engine transplant. I want to take the van out to BurningMan this summer and the Vw has been pretty grumpy the past 2 years despite my best efforts. So time to an upgrade. The wiring harness had to be removed first - as it must be sent out for modification ( which takes a month) It took me a while to get it out - all 43 lbs of it! But now it is in Tacoma getting a Nip and Tuck while I move on. The coolant manifold also needed to be sent out - so I had to remove the whole intake system for the car first. So now while I wait - the rest of the engine will need to be pulled and put on an engine stand while I work on the modifications. Of course - i am still mulling getting the vanagon transmission rebuilt as well. Which would mean putting all of this aside while I get rid of the donor car and get the vanagon home to remove its engine and tranny as well. The schedule will be tight. :O)
