Re: 3.7 engine swap

2 pretty long days of fishing at a couple different lakes. no more oil in the coolant. everything seems to be good. doesnt seem to be any lack of power. maybe ill see a difference once i load on a few buddies. any pointers on getting the pulley for the alternator conversion lined up? lots of wiggle room in the bolt holes and i cant get the thing anywhere near straight. makes the shakes. not a problem till the original charging system craps out i guess...... where can i buy some of that crack finding dye? i think i would eventually like to go back to that 4 barrel. will the lack of the oil cooler on the 2 barrel intake affect anything?

If you have any tool supply companys around, like Grangers or a welding shop they should have it. You may also be able to get it at Harbor Freight. There are differant kinds. There are even some that are flourescent and are really easy to see under a black light.....they can get up there in price.
