We are starting on removing the old engine soon. Getting the fresh engine checked out this weekend. Going to raid the new parts like timing belt off the old engine. Also due to the new safety rules we will need to add a kill switch and some sheet metal to cover the fuel filler line.
Every one also needs to have the neck braces.

Tires give Tom a call at Total performance. 813 875 1915. He has a tirerack wholesale account and a local place where we got our Azenas. Or I thought trekiller had a source.

We need to sit down and discuss car transport at some point...

Gritt Tomorrow this mon I am in Baltimore. Next week Ill be home So that will work.

LD I think Gritt doesnt have a tow vehicle...

Eurotrash team.. Today I took the engine apart. No wonder it was Free.. 3 of the 6 connecting rods are twisted. Some one was running way to much boost. Lucky Tom has a engine he took out of a customers car with a broken timing belt so we can use its internals.

Here is a photo of the bad parts.
