Mikes 4 throttle body 81 profile

[rept@qwest.net (Mike Blain)]

it's not on the road yet. the engine is as pictured, on a stand, sitting 
in the shop, waiting for the mounts to arrive. We stick it all in next 
week then it's off to the dyno. I may also get help up when we run the 
engine dyno (before install) if the current cams I have in it don't make 
  the power we're shooting for. Then i HAVE to get a severe set of 
Schricks.
The 4K was completely gutted and replaced with some new gears, all new 
synchros, gaskets, quaiffe, and a better final drive. Cost a bit but 
it's essentially brand new and worry free- so it's worth it.
