slapped in the plugs, got some msd plug wires but gotta trim em to length.  put all the hoseclamps on the wire lines and made sure everything was tight.  hooked up the hose and turned the gate open all the way... water out the rear exhaust with no leaks anywhere.  gonna trailer it to hemet tomorrow and wax it up and hopefully start it tomorrow.  im excited.  had to drain a TON of gas out of the tanks and refill with 91. 

sigh not as quick as i was hoping waiting for parts and such.  but managed to grab a bunch of goodies, hoses, exhaust hoses, spark plug wires, msd ignition, fuse block, wiring, battery hold down, battery, 3/8" fuel hose, more water hose, gaskets.  ugh the back of my expedition looks like a parts department right now. 

how much would something like this cost to have done?  but obviously made to fit my boat. (the ones in the pic are just too narrow)



ive tried calling around and asking for a quote but most are asking to see it in person before even a ballpark answer can be made.  i just want 2 buckets, and a bench across the back.  i already have new carpet in but id need the boxes/frames made for everything.  anyone who has had it done u dont have to say where (i totaly understand not quoting someone elses work) but just a ballpark for what you paid would be great.  am i lookin at 1500-2k?  

Is that a Bahner?
