Black interior looks amazing how hard was it to remove the dash? Good luck with the rebuilding of your max!

Are you swapping the 3.0 timing chain/components and oil pan onto the 3.5 while using your current ecu and wiring harness or are you going to pull the 3.5 harness and ecu to run the new motor as is? I think you should have left your dash out, lol.

I'll help ya on the weekends. I'm off work now every weekend execpt the first of the month.

Sorry to hear that your parts were stolen and I can't believe that someone would do that.

Thieves after 'scrap metal'. They'll probably get 75-100 bucks for all of that.

Crack/meth heads are getting bad everywhere. They have to board up most of the empty houses around here, because they break in and take all of the copper. They even break into the old Joliet prison sometimes to see what they can take. Sorry to hear about it, but don't give up.
