Never heard that one before.

Getting back from a family trip on Friday. I'll get over to RRS on Monday to test drive the Nova to witness the drivetrain first hand. My limited research on the Gear Vendors overdrive suggested that its a reasonably priced, strong fix for highway speeds especially because 700r4's are apparently hard to come by lately. But by the looks of that motor, I'm going to have to go all out for the paint and interior to match on Big Blue.

I'll just keep reminding my bride that this is a worthy investment.

It's official. We have a motor confirmed and purchased.
Take a look at this transplant donor. Sounds amazing and very tight. Unbelievably, I'll need very few other parts to get Big Blue running. It even comes with the compressor for a Vintage Air system.
