I picked up my driveshaft. It was bent 0.009” so they straightened it, now it’s 0.001” to 0.002” and balance is good. He greased the u joints and painted it.

All for free.

They called it cosmetics. (They work on a lot of heavy equipment so this was fun, clean, fussy work.

I dropped off my original and SFI flywheel to the engine machine shop.

They will surface the new FW and check balance vs the OG.

I left the new pressure plate so they can bolt it to the FW after its balanced to make sure it isn’t out of balance. (If so they will balance the pressure plate as well) I have to call to make sure I was clear that I want them balanced separately so I can replace parts as I wish without needed if to rebalance.

PS: I need to whip up a trans jack plate for my floor jack..... that Muncie is heavy.

Big news!!!

Bob Ashton let me know a little while ago they decided to offer to make a die cast replica of my Cutlass in the MCACN collection.

Yesterday they let the cat out of the bag.

PS: it says my car is a “Ford Oldsmoblie” oh boy!!! Maybe it’s a SCJ-W31??
