What are you doing today?

[Essjay]

I spent the afternoon at the eye clinic for my annual check up for ocular hypertension. Between various tests and seeing the doctor I was there ages.

What year and model is the car? Does it need much work? Are you planning to resell it?

99 mustang. Needs an engine. I will get a junk engine for 350 and sell it. I'm working my way up to a good condition 5th gen mustang gt. Engine swap should take weekend.

Had an apartment wide birthday party for the birthday girl of 103 years. Actually her birthday is the 5th but, being a holiday weekend, we did it before.

A junk 350$ engine or a junk 350³ inch engine ?

Actually, from my past experience with some, the 350 was a junk engine in either case... High maintenance, low return. I'm pretty much a GM person but the Ford 351 was much superior to the GM 350.

My father bough an absolute beast GM Econoline, just to prove me that it pulls more than a 5.0 in a car...

And he was right... But that was unfair competition, loll.

350$ engine from the wrecker. Rear ended vehicles are fine. Engine im looking at has 104000 miles. Car has around 120k. The mustang I bough is a California vehicle is a huge plus. Just came to New Jersey 5 months ago.

From the light bowls look, it's in very good shape.

It is. The kid bought it from the dealership in December and the headgasket blew in February. I'm not convinced the head gaskets blown. I'll start with compression tests then perform a leakdown test. Oil is not frothy and looks nice and dark.
Only thing he did was "straight pipe" it. Usually that means you remove the cats and the exhaust and have a straight length of pipe all the way to the back. All he did was cut off the mufflers and leave it. No pipe added.

I hope you're a non smoker. Carelessly lighting a match after that supper could lead to July 4 fireworks.
