Put a new thermostat and gasket on. Gasket came from amazon and must have been a real cheapo! Leaked real bad. Removed and it was deteriorating already. Live in the boonies, so getting another not so easy. Read that cereal boxes make good gaskets. Thought that if i'm going to try that it might as well be Lucky Charms!!! Still holding and now i have a new gasket for when needed... Also put a fan shroud on, and wow what a difference in keeping cool, well i'm sure the new thermo is helping a bit too!

i will be yes, but it wont be anything drastic. the ALDA has already been turned up as far as the stock turbo will allow(still has more room), i will be going with a bigger turbo so i can adjust it more. I will be removing the Rack Limiter Lever to get the most power out of the rebuilt engine after i break it in. I will be running a boost gauge, pyrometer, and a custom cluster(CJ gauges and other various) with a mechanical speed sensor from a YJ.

No, I don't lick fish.
Dang son!
Just so you're aware, spot and/or flood lights won't do you much good in fog.
Spot lights project a straight "pencil beam."
Flood lights project the widest cone possible.
Fog lights project the widest beam that they can, and they have a sharp vertical cutoff. They should be mounted as low as possible, and they work by illuminating the road without sending any light up into the fog to reflect back into your eyes.
As for the work, it looks like a very clean mod. Nice job.

Not sure why he did specifically, but I'm thinking about this myself now do to the stupid overflow tube getting chewed on by the fan TWICE now.
