What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

I'll admit to being a little envious. I really want to put a 4BT in my Tahoe, but the $$ is prohibitive.
By the time I get the engine, trans adapter and trans controller I'd be way upside down

when one gets emotionally involved with a project,one becomes blind to the cost. Join the club,but you will get bragging rights. ;) ;)
A professional car restorer will tell that the dreamer will generally realize 20-40% of the cost + brag when he sells the ride.

Glad to have you back in one piece! Looks like you hit the ground running as soon as you opened the shop door.

BTW, The title of this topic has become a wee bit of an understatement. :lol:

I can rename it, if you would like a more appropriate title for what it's evolved into.

It's your topic, so let me know what you come up with. Or we could just add, "and then some..."

Wow! Nice looking project you have going on there, you should have some nice low end grunt on tap. 1 ton up front should be about unbreakable. Are you going with a locker also?
