/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ LOL

I will probably do a 4.44 swap when the current one dies. See how that gear set feels with the blower/ built motor and then when that dies I will decide which gear ratio in a built tranny I want to go with.

early Christmas

My stage III came in the mail today (thanks Duckie) as well as my egt gauge. I am only waiting on my boost gauge, wideband, and oil pressure gauges and then all the parts will have been assembled.

I am emailing my template for the one off blower spacer that outlaw engineering is very generously making for me tomorrow on very short notice and overnighting to me. Tom is done and waiting for me to come down and the cams to come up.

no kidding, this is making me feel really dumb about the half finished engine sitting at my parents place. LAN is having everything made now that I was struggling with when I was attempting this on my own.. and I'm not even near it to work on I'm excited to see some real built engines start to roll out, just wish one was mine.

You only live an hour and some change away feel free to come by and check it out or I am in Boston a lot and if you wanted to meet up. Although I dont know how far I will take this car and where I will park it until the whole ignition is fixed and I can start it with a key and not a screwdriver.

And the stuff keeps coming

My wideband and boost gauges came today along with my Alcyone rear light bar. The only thing I am waiting on now is a potenza that should be here today as well.

it's like christmas for you huh? where do you plan on stuffing your gauges anyway, simple pods on the pillar?

It'd be cool to go check it out but i'm still working like 15-16 hours a day everyday... few more weeks everything slows down a bit, I'm excited!

So, due to cam delays I am now leaving tomorrow instead of this evening. That worked out better than I originally hoped because if I had tried to get to philly tonight I would have been a tad upset. The car is running very hot and the alternator (which is brand new) is bad. I will now be spending my day tomorrow fixing that and hoping my tire gets here. See you tomorrow night, Tom.




BTW Never go for walks on the beach when you are drunk. Cell phones dont like salt water.

I am not sure on gauge location yet. I would like to have them in the bottom din of the stereo area, but they will probably end up on the a-pillar.

To Do List:
1. Make it to Philly
2. Replace rear strut mounts
3. Pull motor
4. Install the S/C on new motor
5. Install new motor
6. Install exhaust
7. Hook up gauges
8. Install new head unit for stereo
9. Install Alcyone rear light bar
10. Begin break in process

















11. Watch my tranny say " " and then blow up

Speedklix, when I get back drop me a PM and we can meet up if you want.
