Shopping List for Big Swap Meet
HIGHEST PRIORITY
- Repair parts for 174 $350 (snout and bearing plate)
MODERATE PRIORITY
- Scatter Shield for SBF - Top Loader <$200
- B&M Hurst Shifter for Top Loader <$125 (including installation kit, rods, etc.)
- Alternator Bracket $$?
- Main Pulley $$?
LOWER PRIORITY
If you can find parts for the 174 first, then LT Headers <$200 (I think we'll have plenty of space with most LT headers because we will have stripped so much, I think . . . )
If you can't find parts for the 174, don't get headers because there's a pretty good chance I'll get that Turbo kit if we run out of ways to make the 174 work.

Struck out on the blower parts and the shifter. I didn't look for alternator bracket or the main pulley because I think I have some in storage. I'll look next weekend.
I did, however, find a scattershield for less than your budget.

HP numbers are good and all, but they are like asking someone how much they can bench. What difference does it make if I can still kick your ass?

Great news on the scatter shield. Let me know about the bracket and pulley at your convenience. Those are easy bits to get so I'm not too worried
See transmission thread. I think we're going to have some sponsorhip that will allow us to use the Renagate sequential. 
We're down to the last couple attempts at getting the blower to work. . .

The truck boys want to look at the broken parts. Tom, the welder, is at his shop again. He's got 4 broken fingers, but he could look at the parts also.

I'm still waiting for the laser scanner. So let me know if we're going a different route so I don't waste my time. Just think though. Lasers dude, lasers.

That is just plan "F" with the welding. The laser thing is first by all means.

Yes. The making our own billet piece definitely has way more "baller" appeal. So Aaron, think that way. The welding is our backup if there is somehow a major delay with the Laser plan. I'll get the bits from Jeff and Joe together.

Roll Call for labor tomorrow, I expect at least enkeivette and later on, Death Cult
I'll be working from 1:00 - 6:00 at least. If you can come and work, great. be prepared to get dirty, there's lot of dirty jobs to do.

I may be able to come. Kind of hard to steal away the weekend from the girlfriend.
