Ok, this is for Bob's car. I think me and my dad may have told him he was wrong when he was actually right. 
Does anyone know how the holes on the cam and cam gears are supposed to line up? Are they supposed to be middle hole to middle hole or what? That seems to be what I find when I look for info but my Dad seemed to think it was wrong like that.
So if anyone can tell me from an actual running car that would be great! I wouldn't want to see anymore insurance going to waste while the supra still isn't running.

Yeah tell me about the weight..I think I can carve more weight off myself than my car..hahaha.. shouldn't of quit smoking.. Have you added anything performance wise to the engine other than the hg mod?
I finally got something in the works over here engine wise so I can finally start to use all the shit I showed you. I know, I know I'm frickin slow..anyways you'll hear of it soon enough. Try to make the meet dude and get all the VI guys interested too. We're working on the Washinton guys aswell.. | |

Yo! That's the spirit dude!! As it gets closer to August I'm sure more people will decide to go, but sooner is better as we're trying to get an approximate head count for the hotels and restaraunts. If you guys want to meet up with us in Van we'll boost it up there together.. | |
