Hmm well it’s looking more and more like this old Hemi is gonna end up a coffee table or something. Seems no one is making the transmission adapters any longer.

I found this 241 for a friend. He was going to make a table base out of it. He got divorced and I bought it back. I should sell the chrome and see who may want the rest. It has been through 2 floods, is stuck, and full of mud. :lol: :lol:

Way too many pages this morning. Skimmed the pics. Been raining since yesterday afternoon, but I don't think it adds up to much so far. Now saying continue through tonight. Could be significant total. Funny thing is they have t-storms in for almost every day, but I don't think they even predicted this.

I had a nice break from mowing recently, but I did it this week. Probably back to weekly cutting after this. Just hoping this doesn't mess up my tree guys. Supposed to take down 5 dead to near dead evergreens today or tomorrow. Could actually work in my favor. I'm sure he is trying to keep them working. If the rain stops, I would rather take down my near bare trees than work on some big leafy wet ones.

For all the Puckers on here I see our local team took the Calder cup... I don't follow it, but been to a couple games there years ago. Like most sports, not big on TV watching, but always fun to be there in person.

Let me look. I had a name for an adapter to mate the integrated bellhousing hemi to a GM Muncie.

These are maybe 50 footers. One completely dead. Others just green near top. $115 each plus cleaning up several piles of trimmings. $680 total. I have a 10hp chipper, but it takes a lot of time to feed it and the trimmings have gotten ahead of me. They will knock this out in a few hours. Would take me several days…

Yeah that’s cheap, I was quoted 1400 per tree for just three cottonwoods

That is for cut and chipped. No stump work and he dumps chips in a pile and piles logs. I think I paid 700 total for one huge tree and a section off another the other year done same way. I did have quotes near double that, so did not even get any other prices this time. Never touched the shed…

Or with your local machine shops being affordable, Maybe have them cut the extended bell off and drill/tap the holes to bolt one up? Pretty common years ago
