Thanks to BradP for hooking me up with the cases, Beaverfab for caps and shift housing, and Superdave013 for the hose and fittings in the box at the top of the pics.

wow!
Was that stuff already polished at one time? Or was it the raw castings?
I should send them my tunnel ram and other stuff!!
Looks good and the price is WAY RIGHT!!

I forgot to mention that I'm still waiting on my tunnel ram that is included in the $125. The cases, bearing caps, shift housing, and aluminum stock was raw, the exhaust and tunnel ram were polished once and just got cleaned up (which it was on helluva clean up because they were looking rough!). Needless to say, I'm pleased.

Alrighty then, how's about throwing out some contact info for this philanthropic polisher, I could do with some charity contributions....:D
Seriously, looks good and I can't beat that price around here, not even close so it is probably worth sending a box of goodies with the FedEx guy.

The place I've been taking it is AAA Gaston in Rockford IL. The guy you'll want to talk to is named Henry. He's only there from 5am to 7am Central time. The way it works is he has an old retiree that comes in for a few hours a day just for something to do and he the one that does the polishing. Depending on their workload, his estimated time to get stuff done and the time it really takes can be two different things. This guy has been real good to me, but then again, I go there and listen to all his stories and shoot the shit with him. Anyways, here's the contact info:
AAA Gaston
