Mornin Tim. 101 still closed until at least Monday. Guard rails knocked down, thousands of tons of mud and boulders. A righteous mess it is. That's just the situation in Santa Barbara/Montecito, there are more issues to the south of that the local news doesn't seem to cover.
Figured...HWY 101 is a real mess, all up the coast, I can see the day it is either rebuilt, or just closed all together, go thru Ojai on 166 to the 33. Or up north the 5
Morning guys. Sounds like you all have lots going on. Temp is in the low 40's and the sun is out. I might have to go for a walk later to brighten my mood. Before I retired I was outside every day. Now i spend a lot of time inside when it's 0° outside. I need to change that. Fresh air and sunshine does help.

They have and are making improvements in the Santa Barbara area. One of them currently under construction which could be under that mess now. The people using 166 as a bypass aren't helping matters any. Seems like one per day it's shut own due to an accident. Judging from their behavior when I used it last week, probably due to unwise driving decisions.

G'day fellas
Luke is getting closer.
82 engine,manual crankshaft and flexplate no go? What now? Or is a slanty. Smaller bolt pattern?
I'll dig one out this afternoon. That's not a correct one.
Is that a 3d printer?
K.
Flex plate has 6 holes.
Crank has 8. Insert expletives here ( )
K. Now what?

King of cobble, cobble it up, drill two holes
Kidding....I have one that will work, kind of far tho..
Dunno.....just checked my hat, it doesent say f-me on it. So why?
I'm heading to the shop in about an hour. You need an 8 hole flex obviously. I should have one.

It's you lucky day. Takes a while to get one up there?

Need to figure out a vendor/part number first.
also make sure that you have the correct torque converter bolt pattern. they come in 10" & 11" diameter pattern for where the flex plate to torque converter bolts....
Measure your converter and match that to get the proper flex plate...
Hey tooljunke
Exactly what is this engine,. V8 , v6 , year, what did I come out of body line? All V8 listings are 6 bolt crank, 8 bolt on 4 and 6 cyl.
Looking in my transtar book now trying to I'd correct flex plate and convertor application for you

Workin on the young man's Poncho Stroker.
Too many questions i have no answer to.
318 circa 1982. From? Was removed from a car it never belonged in.
Based on casting numbers its a factory replacement shortblock. Flat top pistons.
Reason im using it is its clean and shows very little wear.
Mating it to a 904.
My local parts guy found a part number,will know monday if i can get one.
Can you get a good pic of crank end for me, straight on and at a angle, so I can I'd crank?
