On another note, my next door neighbor in KY wigged out on Friday and burned his house and barn to the ground before killing himself... I feel for his wife and son, they were one of the few neighbors we spoke with. Seemed like a nice couple and they were kind and helpful neighbors... not sure what exactly set him off.

The wife and oldest girl are all freaked out...



I'm glad to here your family is safe, that's some scary stuff to happen so close to home!
What a sad and tragic thing to happen to your neighbors or anyone .

Here is a pic from this morning of the LS4/F40 Fiero taking a winter nap outside of the apt...


I think its been about 3 weeks since it was started and moved last. It won't move again until the snow all around it is melted and the roads have had a chance to shed some of the salt.

Glad you and your family are safe, Paul, such crazy things happen sometimes.

The LS4/F40 Fiero is back in daily driver duty and giving the truck a well needed rest. Since Nov, I have put 16K miles on the truck with all the trips between IL and KY.

The house in KY closed on the 31st, so I am free of that property. The wife and girls are moved into furnished temp housing in KY for another 8 weeks as they finish up the school year, then they will join me in IL. Still on the hunt for a good place to buy in IL...

Time to go drive the Fiero...

Congrats on closing the house! I'm glad it went (relatively) quickly... or the housing market in Kentucky is just that much better.

Glad to see the house sold!

Thanks! The housing market in KY for the area we lived was starting to come back pretty good. We purchased the house almost 3 years ago, for what the original buyer paid for it new in 2003. Then 3 years later, we list it, show it twice, have an offer within 7 days (while having worst snow storm in a very long time) that is within $900 of asking price. We ended up selling it for 13K more than we purchased it for, so we did OK.

Hi Paul. Hope the house hunting is going well in IL.

I was looking through your pics to see if I could find this info, but all your pics (and the YouTube video of the ls4 starter fixture) are too small to be able to read the casting number. I'm not sure if you can see the casting number on your block with the engine installed now, but if so, could you get it for me. I'm curious if the casting was changed any for the 2007+ LS4, along with the other changes that were made, so just looking to verify the numbers the same. My 06 block is 12569004.

Thanks.
