BTW some Simple Green on a shop rag works miracles with the ick that lives on top of the engine block!

With a one month old at home, if I work on it an hour a week I am doing great!

I've taken the bumper off, going to see if I can find a way to get a decent sized inter cooler in there. I get heat soak as it stands. What size is on your car?
