small update, had to order a new temp. gauge(aftermarket) mine stopped working. I also ordered a new TPS for it as well, and all this because I may be taking it to pick up the axle and other parts for my sas, and it'd be about an hour drive from here, one way to get them.

I have a grand total in all the parts in both pics of a hundred bucks. $70 in gas for the guy who brought them to me, gave them to me for free just paid his gas, and then $30 in gas in the vibe we hauled them home in, which is my father in laws car.

it's been awhile. so figured I'd update. this is how she is now back in the garage have to build a motor. The 350 got swapped over to carb solving all my no refire and dieing issues but I put in a huge cam, and stiff springs, didn't know you need light ones for break in so I ruined a ton of lifters and lobes, got in the bearings and all.

I swapped all the trans guts into another case to get rid of my cracked transmission case. I also did the dual feed mod to the th350 while it was apart. Now I'm just waiting on funds to build a motor for it, gonna be a 305 most likely so I don't have to buy a new crank.
