Made some progress over my holiday break. Removed the transmission and installed the new clutch and pressure plate. Bled the clutch and no more clutch issues. Put some constrained layer dampening sound deadening material on the front floorboards. Rigged up a manual control arm for the HVAC blend door. Replaced the sloppy steering gear with a new PSC unit and bled that system. Swapped the fluids in the differentials over to Amsoil Synthetic gear lube. Retrofitted in an electromotor cruise control system, had to build a new throttle bracket to hold both accelerator pedal and cruise cables. I filled up with diesel on my way to work today, so I will top off tomorrow and have my first MPG reading with the new .64 Overdrive NV4500.
