i think headers caused there first problem (for me)

been driving my truck for the past 3 days back and forth from where we're building a corral (i'd say 1/2 mile each way) and today after i got it home the starter wouldnt work, truck has got up to 180 every trip but never any more then that... my bro crossed the starter while i had the key on to get it started... guess it's time to pull the engine and do it right...
my friend didnt feel like waiting for me to get a new bellhousing starter, so he cut a hole in the bellhousing to put on one that bolts to the engine. the ball that holds the throw out fork is messed up too so im going to put on my spare bellhousing and throw out fork to get it all fixed up

by the way, you all should be proud of our old trucks... it hauled 2 or 3 of those trips with ten 4x6 treated 8 ft post, and twenty-three 80lb bags of concrete
