well thanks Sam for swinging up and lending a hand today. me and Jake worked on the old gal, then sam came up with a little wisdom, then before you knew it, ITS ALIVE!!!!!!!!! yes the rotary B2000 is alive i say!! what sucks is thar the carb is having some issues with the bridge, so im swapping it with my 600 holley. What really sucks is im gonna have to remove the front cover to repair a oil water hose looking leak lol. other than the engine getting flooded because of my carb, its a MEAN running engine. I moved it and after giving it close to half throttle, and over 500lbs of extra weight with the entire old drive train in the bed, it still doesnt like traction. Me and the old bridge are gunning for ya!!!! mohahahaha!!

It really is a steal and the guy says its not running so 1200 seems fair,but I would probably low ball the crap out of him (6 to 800) just to see if I could get it. On the other hand Ive seen alot of junk on craigslist and auto trader for twice or three times as much. **** I paid 1800 for mine and it needed a top and some other little stuff and now after everything Ive probably got 3200 in it and thats about what its worth. getting to the point, I hope someone that really appreciates the stock factor picks this thing up and doesnt ruin it. R u gonna try to make it to the meet now that your so far away?

No problem Manny. And thank you for buying my NA clutch setup. I think you will be impressed with the "grab". I ordereed my TII clutch, same setup as the NA one. I hope to have a driveshaft situated before this weekend. I am so dying to start playing with some big boost without worrying about ripping transmisions apart
