windstar fans came in friday, got my transport alternator this morning, and got the BTO lockup kit installed yesterday. Since I was running a TBId rig, the comp controlled the lockup...now that its carbed, and no more comp....i had to put this in
old solenoid out
new solenoid, 4th gear switch, and wiring in
pan reinstalled
been collecting various other things, AN adapters, and other stuff so I can plumb the trans cooler.... more pics tomorrow.

Well, here we go again. Got the P/S return hose made up and ran. Need to drill out the lower mount in the waterpump to finish mounting that up.
Got the transport alternator half mounted. Need to find out its exact placement, as well as find out what v belt pulley will work.
My bulk head setup for the heater hoses:
My driveshaft all ready to go in. Need to get it in there, as the truck rolls way too easy without it, and too many people have been eying my rig..
windstar fans
my radiator hose, due to the suggesting of that guy doing all the bolt ons
I figure I`ll get the new bolts for the yoke for my rear axle, get the driveshaft in, then get the tv cable on the tranny, bolt the shifter back up on the transmisson, and see ehat else I can get done. Need to buy a new harmonic balancer bolts so I can throw that on and used that to turn the motor over to adjust the rockers....

As far as a v-belt pulley, if you have your old alternator it should be the same, just swap it in place of the serp pulley. At least all the ones I have done, that was all that was required.

got back to work on this thing again
got this shifter mounted back up on the tranny. I`d venture a safe guess and say that I won`t have to reach down to shift, hahah
shifter in park
drive
1st
tv cable bolted to tranny (bolt not in yet in this picture)
tranny dust cover zinced and bombed flat black
patches cut out and installed
undercoated Yeah, I know, they`re not perfect. I could have welded em, blended em, and smoothed them out, but nothings going to be perfect. Its not a show truck. It`s about what`s good enough for me.
this is what happens when you let your sisters friends little brother spray one side DOH!
cleaned it up a little bit, and misted it (looks better in person)
and last but not least for the day, picked up what I`m using for the remaining sections of line in the transmission cooler lines, shields marine fuel line.....BEEF!

Other heat. Summit mojave heater. Warmed up the blazer pretty good, figured it would be twice as good in the p/u cab, seeing as it`s half the space.No heat or other heat ?
