Out here in Iowa they are as rare as a blue moon, shops are always looking for them for cores.

But shipping would kill, unless you happened to be down in Iowa for some reason...

Pulled the t case out to replace a leaking input shaft seal and install the clocking ring. Things were going fine until I pooched the new seal, I have one being delivered in the am from Lordco in Salmonarm.

Test fitting the clocking ring, way off in this pix, and showing the seal can be removed without taking out the cage.

Got some 280155784 injectors out of junk yard 2.4's the other day. Put them on the 318 today, first start up idle was a lot smoother and revving to about 3k was smooth as well. Road test was good as well didn't feel as sluggish as before. Now to see how things work out the next few days when the computer gets time to learn if it has to they have the same flow numbers as the stock single pin injectors.

Finished getting the t case back in the truck, man from the get go she fought me hard. Now I have to look at getting the trans crossmember modded for just a little bit extra clearance. I clocked/rotated the t case 1.25" or one bolt hole over via the clocking ring and it looks like it dropped the front output shaft about 2.5".

Yesterday saw my muffler and Cat arrive.
Today the last of the items on my new exhaust list turned up (Stage 8 header bolts), only they required an in person signature... Really??? Of the $1000's of stuff I've had delivered, (much requiring a release to leave it), header bolts need an in person signature... WTF.

Dropped the truck off at the shop that rebuilt the transmission to have them fix the shifting (or lack there of) issue.
