Crane Fireball, Oil filter relocation, 2.3T VAM's, LA3 etc etc
UPDATE added TIG welder:
Older (late 70's early 80's) Miller 330A/BP tig welder. Amperage range of 5-460 DC current and 5-435 AC current. Pedal ($275) and torch are brand new and I have the water side set up to run off a garden hose. 240V plug, ground clamp is all there, everything minus the gas stuff, tung and filler rod is there. I only ran it once, barely got it to strike an arc, but I never TIG'd before and didn't know how to set the machine up. It MAY NEED SOME WORK TO GET IT RUNNING %100. The plug connecting the welder to the pedal needs changing, take it to tri-tech and I"m sure they'll know what you'll need to connect it.
I'm asking what I've got into it, $750. Take note, 850 lbs.
Misc parts, 50 cent on the dollar:
Oil filter relocation, $25
Crane Fireball HI-6S, better spark, but what is really cool is the RPM cut, put it on a normally on/off relay to pull your SPOUT and you've got a cheap 2 step: $75
Stock turbo rods, need to press out the pistons: $40
LA3, big VAM, and Brown top combo, all worked great when came off car: $130
Big VAM, tapped this one for an IAC hose since my TB didn't have one, easily plugged or cut off and JB welded back together, with bracket if you need to mount it on something: $40
