"SIR" stamped in heads stands for "Southwest Import Rebuilders". Reasonable company. Mostly good engine work from them. Not awesome, but workman quality.

Tired of searching for people to do my welding.
An old friend dropped off a wire machine to me and gave me some pointers.... so this is the first thing I have ever welded... not too bad though.
Got my upper harness tabs on.

And there were several holes on one of the transaxlemission horns...

So now, I can keep working on some fitting and finishing touches and get this thing finished Cool
