It has been a while. A long while. It has been ridiculously busy at home, school, and the farm. Yard work, gardening, fall clean up, planning,marking, fencing; the list goes on.

In the meantime; I picked up a donor intake from pick n pull and redid the intake shaving, another pile of work. My welds and technique seemed far superior this time. I was able to check my penetration on a trial run and then my first couple passes and I think I have it done very well. I primed and painted it. I have reinstalled it and I am now exactly back where I was a few months ago. Ugh.

On the bright side, the writing harness has shed a lot of weight and I will be slowly buttoning it back up and moving a couple things around like the MAF sensor.

I also picked up a PILE of parts but haven’t opened that Christmas box just quite yet. I know if I do, I will turn my back on the tasks I’m working on right now.

Slow as...but still going forward...finally.
