What to do this weekend on the 7's
Should I:
Work on the body work on the GFH, Finish prepping the engine compartment for paint
or
Pull the tranny out of the TII (Blown motor) so I can compression test my cheap used engine and see if its worth installing?
I am driving my ancient 75 Chebby PIKEMUP 60 miles round trip to work and it sucks

If the Spare engine has compression I can drop it in One BIG thrash session, but first I have to get the passenger door open!, The spring came off the latch, neither handle works!

Opinions are like........
Quit whining and do something
Car is mostly prepared for storage and just found a winter car storage special at the storage warehouse. Might just spoil the car this winter.

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
Dont you have a lot of spare parts? you can use a NA flywheel and tranny and starter to run the compression test. ****, Id just crank the engien over by hand and if it has all its seals in place still Id throw it in, whats it take, 3 hours? Then baby drive it around until you get time/money/motivation to do it right, or sell it, or whatever. As long as all the seals are good, even if theyre low like 90psi, it'll run fine and be better than driving a damn truck :-0
