10/12/2015 update:

Motor finally going back in the car under Dempsey's watchful eyes.


7 hrs later transmission and exhaust installed.


It was long day for sure. My whole body is aching from wrestling with 700 lbs of motor and 100 lbs transmission...

She'll be running come Saturday.

10/17/2015 update:

Started with cleaning under the car. Took advantage of Dempsey's lift and Touched up areas I can't normally get to.
Finished installing injector housings, and with Dempsey joining me later, coils, plenum, etc...


Oil pressure is 45 psi at operating temp at idle and no strange noise from the motor.
On the way home car was missing most likely due to plug wires being plugged into wrong coil terminal. I was too tired and in a hurry.
Ordered new set of plug wires and spark plugs.
Can't believe I had to do this twice but it's done and behind me.
Great big thanks to Dempsey, Phil, Rich and all WAZOO gang for incredible help!

Looks awesome Yun and glad to hear the good news. Like Lee said, can't wait to see the dyno results on a 380. On another note, thanks for the info on the Revolution Brakes and I should receive them next week or so.

Thanks Craig. Once I sort out spark plugs and wires, I need to do some data acquisition and have Marc touch it up.
If you run into any snag with the brakes, call me.

Finally installed new NGK iridium plugs and replaced spark plug wires. I had crossed #3 and #5 wires-explains why she was missing bad returning home from Dempsey's.
All's great now.
