Dean,
The package is on the way,....barely !
On the way to the post office this morning my daily driver decides to die on the side of the road just on the other side of a very busy intersection, i was able to coast safely thru. i ended up spending half the day sitting on the side of the road waiting for my mechanic friend, and then a tow truck. 
I will find out the damage ($) tommorow. ;(
Dean check your PM.

Today we got the 3800 back together and cleaned out the bay and repainted it with Chassis black paint.
I also removed the old battery tray and cleaned up the cradle a bit more as well. I just got the mounts from Tony today so we will get the cradle painted and start to mount the motor.
the clean bay with a freas coat of paint.
I will be installing a new mat on the fire wall to cut down heat and noise but it will be a newer product that works better than the old nasty stock stuff.
