If you remember I asked if someone could check out something for me a few weeks ago. Jody volunteered, he was in the area.

The thing was that I had found a LS1/T56 combo on eBay and the seller was a private person. Sitting on the other side of the globe, nine timezones away, I needed someone present to help me out. I am forever grateful for the help and support Jody gave me with this. Fixing with the seller that everything was delivered as agreed.

Then Jody contacted Ross Dorn to help out with the crating and shipping, thanks Ross!

This is amazing and as had been said before we have a great bunch of people here. I consider all of you as personal friends and this is proof that we all are.

Thanks a lot guys!! :thumbsup:

And here is the engine, in Jody's shop.

Now I just have to wait two months for it to arrive over here. And when I got it it will keep me busy during the winter.

Good stuff, Jan. I'm glad it all worked out as I know the motor had to make a really tight deadline to be shipped.

[907rs]

Right on, Jan. I bet you can't wait to start the install. :willy:

I agree with you 100% about our little community. Both of the fellows you mentioned have helped me out more than I could've asked for, and I've never met either in person!

Just goes to show that what comes around goes around.

Looks like something from GT4 minus the beautiful women.

Like I always tell my wife.. "car people are some of the nicest most genuine people around"

I can't tell you how many people on these boards have helped me out over the years.. people I have never met..


Oh, and enjoy the magic and the power of the LS1 engine.. it will be hard to ever go back to them carbs.. :yes:

That's funny. I did something similar for a hot rodder in Denmark who is buying a Firebird off ebay. I checked out a car for him yesterday and took pix of problem areas. I'm always impressed with how hard europeans (and Australians, and south Americans) work to satisfy their need for muscle cars. You guys deserve our help.

I built a little webpage, so that he can browse the pix with ease:

Steevo,
That took alot of time and effort to do what you did for that gentlemen, your a great guy for doing that. And I know there are thousands of car guys all willing to help, but still it is great to see this stuff going. I also noticed your new A3 in the background...Nice.

And believe me I have been on the recieving end of generosity far beyond most of your imaginations.

I love car guys!
