1994 K1500 Suburban 4X4, Another SBC Bites The Dust

I can't see the pics in work. So what caused the death of your engine?
Time and age, I think the original GM head gaskets too.
Dead of winter & nothing else to drive.
Unless I took my Corvette out in the snow.
I remember it snowed heavy that week.
Right after I went to Missouri to drop of Matt's One off C3 Dana 44 with a Billet Cover I built with Mopar Bob.
 
I am sure you have at least 50 tasks or projects to complete for me.
Honestly- I bet I have enough to keep a really good mechanic busy for 40 hrs X 52. A couple years ago I offered Caroline's uncle Paul, a retired mech, a place to set up shop with above average pay plus medical and profit sharing. Paul got sick and died just a couple days before he was to start, that's why I have the equipment and tools I have still new. Somebody could get some great stuff cheap at the auction.
 
I can probably be gone for 1 week tops.
Married with 2 young boys.
Nicky is 6 & Jamie is 2.
So much to do around here at my Farmhouse daily.
I fixed my Washing machine today.
Replaced the motor control circuit board in our 2008 Whirlpool Duet sport washer.
Last month I hand repaired the Main Circuit board in the Matching Whirlpool Dryer.
Have to figure out what your selling short term to get you $$$.
 
Would you be able to trade for work? I have a debt owed to me by a transit company. They only pay in trade to haul so to get my money back I can sell auto transportation anywhere in the lower 48. So that I can get insurance coverage I book through a transport broker for a minimum fee just like dealers do. In short, I can ship cars to you, but you have space problems don't you?
 
Most Mechanics don't live to long I noticed.
Sorry about your Wifes brother Richard .
 
Cars and trucks that are done and ready are the easiest to go first. Same for motors parts and equipment

So, if not any trade for work, do you have an offer to throw out for anything?
 
I don't have the Garage needed Richard .
Only my Bud Ed does in Joliet.
He wants simple jobs. In and out 1 day.
And he wants to continue Fabbing projects.
He wants to Go Drag Racing again though....Takes $$$$ earned.
 
We are used to High End builds from the past & recent.
Just the Details take a lot of time.
 
If the cars & trucks are apart in 1000 boxes Ed will not be Happy.
No a quick answer.
At least tonight...
 
A week can knock out some things. You would have to bring your trailer. If you wanted to to the Mohawk lift back for Ed
I need to get a fork lift to take it down and load it. Need help too. A normal trailer can hold the lift and several motors, I have really nice plastic motor crates from Butler you can have.
 
What have you been building Richard ?
Pontiac V8 shipping containers from Butler ?
 
Ed is A Complex Individual too like us Richard.
Also hates Bam Bam.
Even the Black Racers knows he is Krazy.
I have to get my Suburban going 1st.
Likely a few trips made by.myself to You Richard .
 
Any interest in a commercial washer machine for blocks, heads and transmissions? Brand new, well, used once. Takes a greasy dirty engine and strips it clean no chemicals dual heat modes. It's in the warehouse still in all original packing and manuals, model still being sold - cheaper than cheap
 
Some of the Best EFI Tuners are in Chicago area.
The Racing Network is there too.
Anything you want made is possible .
Exotic will take $.
 
Ed & myself are Little guys Richard.
We are very good.
Talented.
Spare $ not a premium right now.
That commercial washer be nice.
Has to be worth at least $7000.00

When I was talked out of buying from Rock and Roll Performance I brought back an HO 455 from SEMA last fall. The owner was pissed his driver quit on him and he thought to sell some bulky items to save return shipping. I had it in mind to put into the GTO but it would create bigger problems. It's a beautiful thing to just stare at lol!
 
This is the one I have if interested come see it.

Ok Richard .
Ed is a Ford Guy.
I am the Pontiac guy.
He watches Street Outlaws too.

He is Slightly interested in LS power.
 
The Last thing you want to do is stick in one of those Cheap Ass In Tank Fuel Pumps with that Butler Pontiac V8 engine.
Don't listen to Wiz on DC.
Must have A Custom plumbed External Fuel Pump system.
