Eddie,
I'm the guy you spoke with about finding a kit to smooth the V8 swap into the '82 Eagle I picked up a few months ago. Again, I've registered at the Eagle's nest forum, just haven't received confirmation yet..
Thanks again,
Bert

Not sure what's going on with Eagle forums. First time I've seen this one. Dens and nests are not the same kind of home . Anyway I see Doug Iowaeagle is involved in this site as well. Almost identical to nest forum. Thought it went up from an X disgruntled member.

The Den is slowly taking shape, and will soon hopefully replace the Nest, or morph into it (just my wish, but not reality yet).  There are many things going on behind the scenes, and will be center stage in due time. The Den is not from an "X disgruntled member".

If you're looking for disgruntled former nest mebers, check evo out. We've got a few that bash Steve when an opportunity arises :rotfl: I would like to see this place overtake the nest as well, sounds like it might be soon...
