    For sure running the OEM EFI mate. Be a step backwards not using it IMHO.
    The pre 2003 Range Rovers used the old Buick 215 all aluminum, bored out to 4.6liters. So not a lot of power to be had for reasonable money. I have built a fair few of them, and it just isn't cheap to get even close to 300HP at the crank. So I sold my built RR motor for $3k, and bought that LM7 for $700. Broke even thus far, but the electronics will just be a joy......not.
    All the best for tomorrow!

    I didn't try for the challenge 72 oz... they had a 50th anniversary special that was 1/4 the size steak as the big one. I ate the small one fine, and everything that came with it EXCEPT the biscuit...cause I was full enough. :D

    Anyways, back at the Flying J in Casper, hunkering down till Wednesday for a load, most likely pipe from somewhere around here. But I did catch up on watching my Showtime flicks, just sat through 3 hours of Homeland. Caught up on Dexter the other night.

    Thanks for the thoughts Logan, but they did offer me to go home, but I have a doctor appointment mid January, so I just figure to stay out...been sitting on my butt for 11 months, I need to stay busy for the immediate future. I know I regret having to tarp this load...windy to put on at the start, and frozen to fold up at the end. :(

    Oh well, that's flatbedding. :D

    Hmm.. let me know how that goes. My 96 LR Discovery could use an upgrade in the front, with 160K on it.
