was just talking to past owner of 571's TBI motor:

I got it from a guy who junked an old blazer...said it had "around 80K" on it...being a replacement at one time. I had it in my '89 for a few years... then you got it.


so awesome what that thing put up with when i got it haha

Is there a 101 flyer? I need one by tomorrow night.

basic info page up, pre-reg up, fliers should be done very shortly and insurance should be locked in midweek.

www.fingerlakes4x4.org/101

I'll put the flier up once it's published...

The ls engines have spare ports for a temp sensor, hookup your oil pressure, and the ecm has an output for a tach.

Poopy. Not much to do then unless it wants to come back out for fun. I guess easier to full weld and brace mounts without the motor in the hole?
