Well my friend came over and picked my 240 up and took it to his house(hauled) to put the new(to this car) transmission and TC in. I brought it back TODAY! He had it done in less than 24hrs! He picked up my parts car(his payment) after he drove mine over to me.

The car still has some small bugs to work out *One inject is bad, but I kept the other from the parts car (he plans to do a 350 swap for a school project) *Plug AIV pipe,previous owner left it open so the car sounds like a beat up chevy. *Driver's side motor mount needs replaced Then its on to working on the body, frame, paint, interior, and rebuild my spare engine w/performance parts before I drop it in and do the manual swap(not anytime soon)

It is so great to have a functional 240 again.

Definately not going to be pushing it, especially before I get the motor mount replaced.

I picked up o-rings today, does about $4 and some change sound about right per each set(one injector)?

Glad you have ur car back irax, I hate it when one of my cars is away from home. Well my friend is planning to finish stripping my old parts car(the one he got for fixing mine). He wants to put a v8 in it, and if anyone around my area can do it, he can. He got the old engine and transmission out and his mockup engine in to start measuring and so on, in less than 24hrs(mind you this includes sleeping). I was impressed.
