Oh Btw AK keep your eyes peeled on license plates, Iditarod is starting tomorrow! (I'm sure you're aware lol) but yeah I'd think you would see a couple of the finisher plates.

Also note there's a generic Iditarod plate and the plate that says Iditarod finisher.

Hell no.... gabapentin is still getting me through the day. It's a muscle thing.... kinda thinking it might be something in my hip joint, as it seems to be where the most pain is coming from, then it just continues down my leg and into my lower back.

It's weird because by the end of the day, it feels OK. Mornings are hell.

BTW, didn't get the parts yet. I was hoping I'd have them yesterday.

EDIT..... just looked, and they are at my post office. Around here, that could still mean Monday though, LOL. Salt Lake's post offices deliver the day it comes in. Out in the sticks though....

Sorry to hear that white, what a drag. I hope it works itself out soon.

______________

If it's not prime or if it's coming from ebay, it can take forever and a day. Amazon prime has a great thing going, if I can that route I will. As long as prime isn't up charging a ton anyway. Yea, I'm patiently waiting for the outcome of your little project there lol.

The gaskets have been rolling in..... UPS, Fedex, and USPS hate me lately, LOL. And Brew, I got the stuff I received for my other project - I will try and get to that tonight or tomorrow.

Anyway, just an FYI for any of you building a SBF in the future. The Ford Racing gaskets are FelPro 9333P1's, which are regarded by many people as the best N/A gasket on the market for a SBF. I was 90% sure they were made by FelPro and they were the 9333's just by the pic, so I rolled the dice. They are actually a little cheaper this way.



Also got these STEEL core valve cover gaskets today..... anyone see a problem here? Or is it just me?
