Leecheater's rebuild, getting there
- Thread starter leecheater
- Start date
Manifold back already, planed smooth and flat. The hoist also arrived today. I am leaving on vacation tomorrow so Sean and Gary will be erecting it. Sean has already installed 4 of them so that should help. Here are a couple of pics.
A lot of work still needs to be done on the Supra as spring is around the corner. I saw 2 guys on motorcycles today. It was 32 degrees!!

The lift is in and wired up correctly. She's a hell of a lot nicer lift than the old one. Now, If I can just get Sean to finish up the manifold, we are pretty much set to put her back together. Only thing else is intercooler pipe welding. I have the empty tank of Argon ready to be filled in the morning.

Thanks guys. Having a hoist is so helpful. For example, last night my friend Mike was working on his Evo. He was struggling to get the exhaust manifold off. Really bending at the waist, leaning over the car. Just lifting the car 18" made so much of a difference on his low back.
This week, the Supra gets put back together. Still too cold here to run her on the highway. Maybe we are finished with the snow. It has been a long winter.

This week, the manifold will be done and installed, even if I have to hold Sean's feet to the fire. :evil2: He's 80% done just needs a few small welds, grind them smooth and polish her up, and throttle body, throttle cable and she should run. I can't wait.
