I'm incredibly sorry Bill, I"m not sure what your reaction was when it went south but your responses on here sounds alarmingly calm.

I would like to introduce the "Black Curse"

Example in point, TJblackbonnie crapped out his transmission and now Boosty has crapped out two motors.

They both happen to be black.

Again, I"m sorry about what happened. **** happens.

Screw black curse, this motor came from a white car. All you white owners should pay your respects. :P

Can we shoot them afterwards for leaving so many half broken parts in the junkyard for me to end up with by mistake?

Well, the first motor was the original? Therefore it was the black curse.

I'll let the White curse for the second motor count for that one.

Hang in there bud.

Wow....I'm going out right now and wrap my car in bubble wrap!

I hope that your 3rd one does it for you!

I wasn't..that meant another 1/2 motors worth of brackets to swap...lol

Olds isn't having a black curse..it'* called NYC. You can't live there w/o a dented car.
