So far I have the valve cover seals and rear main complete. Pics. Engine all shiny pic 1 Valve covers offmmm cams Rear main:http://www.subaru-svx.net/photos/fil...n050/36043.jpg Oh and my PWR radiator nice peice I had ordered a new radiator from subaru but after shipping this turned out to be a much better deal

Awesome work! I wish that my engine looked as good as that.
For a smaller pic, you can change the resolution on your camera or use software like http://picasa.  .com/ It's free and has a resizing feature under the export option. And, there are a lot of other pretty cool features that you can play around with. It's even got a tutorial that you can look at before you download.

Sorry for hijacking your thread and going off topic jman, but after looking at the pic of your radiator, I was reminded of a question I've been meaning to ask. My cousin is a car salesman for Honda. One day last winter, we were driving to a basketball game about 30 miles away. About 25 miles into our trip, I looked at his temp gauge and it wasnt fully warmed up. Actually, the engine never fully warmed up for the entire 40 minute trip. Does a good radiator do that? Or does honda know something about engine cooling that other car companies dont? We were in a 2004 honda accord.

from what ive heard its actually a problem if the engine never fully warms up because it will cause more friction. Im sure someone knows more than me though.
