We have put more money into the injectors on our diesel that is in our truck than what I would have spent on a nice High Performance big block crate motor. It seems everything on diesels is expensive! We wont need the torque from a diesel to pull this light weight around.

starwars tom wyckoff interstellar space truckers I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

From the pics you took of it coming out of the shed you could see all the potential there. Can't wait to see the finished van. And I second the a$$ kicking on the butchered trans mount. If you don't know what you are doing don't do it til you do!!!!!!
It is better to have Van'd once in your life, then to never had Van'd at all! | | |
