Got out in the garage a little last night and started to disassemble the engine. After I got the carbs off though I just had to see what it would look like with the IDA's on it :dance:

Then I got it tore down a little more. Hopefully this weekend I'll get the engine and tranny pulled. The tranny is going to Rancho to see what's up with it and rebuild it. The engine is going to come part for the next stage in it's life :twisted:
