Well I got the replacement engine in today and she fired right up! (thanks Gene) It was scary! Now to the problem, it wont shift out of 1st gear. by the way I used my tranny that was in my car already. I know it's probably a vacuum issue, I just wanted to run it by you guys to see if you had any ideas. After all I've been through to get to this point I dont have it in me to poke and prod anymore than I have to. I need to get back on the road!
