I'd be prepared for her to randomly vanish. I hate the fickleness of women. So many of those are major red flags.

Anyone know much about importing cars from the USA to Canada? I get the feeling its gonna cost too much to be worth it but I'm wondering anyways.

Ditch the Bitch.
Cars > Women. Women are untrustworthy even though I trust my wife.

I can, but not when it's awkwardly shaped and weight distributed all fucky like an engine. Did bench press my transmission up though.
This. Love me some harbor freight. Half my shop at my in laws is HF and the other half is AutoZone sucks I don't have the garage though so I have to wheel everything out, work on the project then lug everything back into my storage shed. Currently browsing their physical catalog booklet and making a wishlist for when I buy my home with detached barn and set up my hobby shop. 4 post lift from summit though because not trusting a HF lift THAT much. Gonna be able to properly LARP like I know what I'm doing. Pic related cabinet looks pretty sweet and ive accumulated a ton of tools now more than my current kart can store organized, would also put in a hard wood work bench.
Anybody with a second gen f body done their tacho recently? I got a new wire and I know one end plugs into the HEI cap and the other goes through the firewall and onto the gauge cluster but I'm getting mixed word if it goes straight to the tach or into the big harness connector. Guess it won't matter once i take it apart and see for myself huh? Also my needle floats when off but when it receives power it drifts erratically and sometimes pins all the way around clockwise and back to zero. So I know I have power and ground, I'm thinking it current harness is damages (it melted on the headers) and I'm hoping the actual gauge is fine. Does this sound likely or is it the gauge? Got some more questions regarding Speedo driven gears too if anyone knows anything about that

>bench press the transmission
Had to do the same with my th350since it kept falling off the jack, alone they're not too bad but with the torque converter they start to get a bit heavy.

Also with your tach check the big connector in the back of the gauge cluster and make sure your printed circuit board on the back isn't fried like mine was. I think the cluster is grounded through the bolts in a really fuckery kind of way so that could also be your problem.

Yea mine wouldn't line up onto the dowel pins no matter what we kept adjusting knobs and tilting forward back side to side and it wouldn't fucking go. Full of fluid and with the tc. Can't take all the credit though because I didn't start with it flat on my chest or anything I just laid under it on the jack and pressed it up of the jack onto the dowel pins while my buddy got some bolts in finger tight and then when I tired out he adjusted the jack up to support it. Then Benched the tailshaft up and onto the crossmeber and mounts. It was easier than fucking with the tranny Jack. I also had to bench a full gas tank from my wrangler the same way while my wife finger tighted the bolts, didn't have a tranny jack back then and was trying to use 2 trolley jacks and it kept slipping off.
