Not yet...
Stopped by the shop today 'cause I hadn't heard anything since before turkey day when I was told it would be buttoned up early this week.
There sat my baby, layer of dust, hood off, front tires aired down, motor still on the stand. Needless to say I was blown away!
The latest hurdle was the left side exhaust manifold. Discovering that it was cracked, the mechanic ordered and received a replacement. Motor was back in the vehicle, bolted up to the trans, right side exhaust bolted up...left side exhaust won't align. Yep...wrong manifold. Manifold re-ordered, motor back out of truck, working on it today, hope to get it Friday.
