Well, it's been 21 days since the MM went into the shop for the bum engine. The biggest delay was just getting the darn thing shipped in. Anyway, they are cleaning up the car today and I can pick it up after work in the morning. The tech also replaced the EGR Valve, reflashed the computer to the latest for BMDO, and he says it's good to go. I told him when he drove it the speedo would be way off due to the gears. Although it was running with the stock program, he was impressed with the car. I'll load the 93PF program in the morning and let him run it again with the new shift points... :banana:

There will be a slight delay in the return of the MM. Seems that they put the car outside Tuesday with the windows up. Nice hot day in Delaware, car sittin' in the sun......now they have to replace the windshield. It has a nice crack in the middle from heat build up......Oh well, new engine, new windshield....

Haggis, they just wouldn't spring for the 5.4 or the Cobra motor. I tried my best, even tried to bribe them, but no dice.....Rats!

Speaking of "Rats." I got a chance to look at the new engine with the intake mounted prior to install. There is plenty of room both behind and in front of the intake for critters to sneak into the valley between the heads and make a nice cosy home. Found that in mine when he pulled the intake off the original motor. Just a heads up here about that.....

You need to inform the "Critters " that the Marauder ain't no RV or start charging them rent.

And they called me mad when I stored my Marauder in a bubble. Mad am I? insert evil laugh here and fade ... :P
