haha im very thankful for all the offers, we may have to make an event out of it. im thinkin that if we get it done in a weekend then i may have to run down to the lake for a little MWC pontoon boat ride lol, then walk up to the bar that i work at
as for why i chose Golen, i was EXTREMELY impressed with the customer service, Chad has been great to work with.

I'd offer a hand, but between vacation now and being gone a week in June, my brownie points with the wifey will be used up.
Sounds like you have a great crew lined up already, good luck!

I can pretty much do it whenever, especially if it's over a weekend. I have friggin Summer classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but I can make pretty much anytime work. Oh and Tyler, I'd be happy to bring a Missourian with a nacho cheese machine along, that always makes engine swaps easier.

Im willing to throw in with you iowa boys, i can supply another vehicle and pretty much any tool you could want, if we can do it over a weekend. I dont work friday, saturday or sunday. Let me know, if someone chips in some gas money im down for a trip.

I hear ya there! My GF hasn't talked to me since Thursday and it may be another week before I hear from her....I think my brownie points are in the negative right now. Really sucks because I bought her a ring and had intended to give it to her Saturday night :sad1: and I can't give it to her next Saturday because she will want to kill me on Sunday when I am running around the garages and pits at Indy from 6am to 7pm :shhh: She gets po'ed because I get to hang around the drivers and teams and she's stuck out in turn 3 (IF she even goes)......

thats true, but apparently this motor comes with a nice crate, hopefully if the motor gets out of the crate, we can put the nacho machine on it!

Ha, I have seen crate motors arrive on a pallet.... cost cutting! Looks like you will have plenty of help and partying..... now if I could have had some of that help working on my shop.....I still need a few things done like finish screwing the roof panels and putting up some trim. I can't climb ladders, my heart meds make me loose balance when I get off the ground or I'd do it

now listen up young grasshopper, learn in the ways of the master and you too shalll have faith in the beer and nacho philosophy. If you turn Collin and I loose on a fully intact rig, by the end of the wekend we can have a motor pulled and replaced and running. Just ask me (us) how I know
It seems as of over the past year that Collin and I are doing full on part outs or motor swaps on a semi regular basis! As long as it is a nonconflicting weekend, I could think of nothing else I would rather drive 8 hours to do :thumbup:

haha you guys are too funny
i just emailed chad to see how the motor was coming along. so i should have a pretty good idea of when it will be here.
do you guys think i should order a new thermostat and water pump? i just made a shit ton of money serving at the resteraunt (im never a waiter so it was a nice suprise lol)

I would order the new thermostat and water pump, they are cheap and it is nice to have a piece of mind that they are new at the same time as the motor. just my $.02
