and to be honest, I didn't even think about it - I was in such a rush.... ah well, that does give me a good starting point if I can't get it to work tomorrow night
I really want to race, and I was pretty disappointed when I realized I couldn't get the arm in from the outside. I managed to pull and reinstall the trans and bellhousing in 1 1/2 hoursLast edited by SuperBuickGuy; November 15, 2013, 10:16 PM.

to save explanation, I'm a SDA - means I don't work on my cars on Sabbath.... I say that to give context to the next stuff
I was rushing to get done before sundown, and I think I did.... but I didn't get it off the lift, nor did I get to drive it.... nothing like suspense.....
I did get the parts today, however, at 10:30 (woohoo Summit!)
Last night, I worked on my truck and put the brake controller in - does my trailer have brakes? yes. Do the work? no. Does the brake controller work? why bother if the brakes don't work... but at least the controller is in the truck
so after removing the transmission again.... and putting the fork in (I did verify that I could get a fork in.... but as I didn't have this fork; I guessed I'd be able to get it in... no)
and putting it back together
I need to paint it... but it's in
and bleeding
it's in... tomorrow night, after sundown (4:30), I'll get back onto finding out whether I'm racing the C3 or the 325.... if the C3, then I need to unload, and hookup my trailer.... that will take some time since it has press-brake parts on it.

If it works out, it'll be glorious because it's supposed to be really nice on Sunday (colder than a witch's toenail).
If not, I also could go out 4 wheeling up to a closed-to-the-public-road to see a ghost town

blowing deadlines is my specialty. Lemme know if you need some help. I feel like one of Freiburger's deals this week. Have everything you need to finish? Not so fast Sparky. That's the wrong head gasket (recovery, not ideal, but I have other compression stealing head gaskets). Got that solved? Not so fast. Those are the wrong rockers for that cam (recovery, but those aren't the rockers you really want to use) Under control now? Congratulations, you just put it back together almost stock and killed the whole original premise.
Summit has been very good to me over the years. They sent the exact stuff I ordered, even when it wasn't what I really meant to order. Hope it works out!

and it may not, the speedway order isn't going to be here today. I'd swear I hit the order button, but alas, no order. So I bought the same parts from Summit; however, the most important bit is coming from Ohio.... this should be close.
bummer about the parts...
