Spent all my time getting my LQ1 Cradle back together after refreshing the motor (new belts and seals) and swapping my MY18 for a Isuzu MT2. (I know this is a bad decision I just want to see how it feels), Brought the boys over (they work MOW on the railroad and are only homes on saturday) to put the cradle back in the car. Figured oh better put my exhaust on just to find the Isuzu throwout arm is higher than the Muncies and hits my nice finished exhaust.

I had to buy everyone pizza and they didnt even have to do any work.

I dont need any help with this, I just wanted to rant lol

We went with a handtossed pepperoni and sausage and a hawaiian, with canadian bacon and pineapple.

Pizza is only provided for those who participate in hours of grueling physical labor. If you come up and help me rebuild the front end on my M35A2, I get ya pizza AND beer, lol

A good rule of thumb is to have everything on the engine and cradle (except for the exhaust tips and turnouts) prior to installing the cradle into the chassis.
This includes hoses, belts, wiring, manifolds alternator, axles, suspension arms, struts and knuckles....etc.

Do it like they did at the assembly plant.

Thats how I always do it, I just overlooked the exhaust until the last minute since there were so many other distractions happening, Im hoping next week I can can trim and splice a bit till it all fits again.

Do we get to cruise around town in it and go through the Mc.Donalds drive through (or at least try)? I'm totally down with that.

Very nice toppings indeed. I put a frozen pizza on a sheet then place it on the engine. I drive to the next town and back and wow! Cooked to perfection!

During Oktoberfest last year, we parked my 84 Fiero in the bed, and then drove through a Wendy's drive through (We don't fit at McDonalds cause of the Awnings) and had the guy sitting in the Fiero in the bed order. It got a pretty good laugh from the staff as they handed the back up the side.
