  1. Paragraph one: Valentine's Day in Cincinnati is not a prize Paragraph two: Wiring diagram read in five minutes? Well done, my friend. Paragraph three: Yep.
  2. Do NOT move to Austin. We are full. Thank you. Mikey
  3. Hopefully, he is smart (Smartin) enough to bill you for more than 15 minutes.
  4. Devils Advocate here: One of the reasons I buy and sell to people on this forum rather than ebay is that I know most of the people here, and consider them friends. With my Buick friends, I regularly sell and buy without sending or receiving payment first, sometimes not at all. But then again, I am a huge proponent of "buy high - sell low".
  5. Steve Carell plays a good crazy car guy in a few scenes as well.
  6. Which is why Jim reads all of my threads.
  7. Not mine, and too rich for my blood, but... http://m.ebay.com/itm/360935278109?nav=SEARCH
  8. I will Mud. I ran mine with a drill, but didn't have your fancy pants gauges. It just "felt right". That's right. I'm a mechanic by feel. I also don't know why it is leaking gear oil from the bolts. I sealed them when I rebuilt the gear, then I pulled them today and wrapped em with Teflon tape and it is still leaking. I pulled the pump and reversed the center section so the arrow pointed the right direction. I was asked by Willie earlier how I checked it that way. I checked it before I rebuilt the pump. Honestly, the worst thing about this is that I hate tranny fluid because of the feel and gear oil because of the smell. Oh, and I don't remember if I mentioned this, but I rebuilt one for a customer at the same time, and his worked. At least I got some bondo spread today in my convertible. Oh yeah. YES I am working on two of my cars right now. I don't have overhead. Shut up. Don't let my wife hear you saying how lucky I am.
  9. As you need to learn, I am not a fast or good mechanic. The whole column will have to come out again. Not happy right about now.
  10. I have to fix this pump first. And the leaks. Then I'll call ya
  11. Bigger primaries, so maybe a little quicker off the line, all other things equal. Shoot, I have added all of the other options to this little baby Buick, I might as well add a four barrel.
  12. That's right Lamar. If you want your car judged, you should still buy one of the Mr. Earl expensive versions since the dish is different.

  15. This setup works if you can't find a pulley, btw.
  16. The end cover bolts and the O-rings at all of the tubes. I am hoping that, while it is a messy proposition, all of this can be sealed while in the car. I just discovered my problem. The steering pump rotor ring (flat piece painted black in my picture above) is supposed to be counterclockwise from the BACK of the pump. Dang. Oh well, at least I don't have to pull the column again. (I hope)
  17. Sure was pretty... Leaks and doesn't work. $h17.
  18. Probably both. and yes, it is for a customer, not me or Willie
