great....I started honing my block only to find a huge scratch under all the oil...soooo...block has to be punched 40 over...and have to get new pistons...going hypereutectic....there's another 300 bucks I don't have. will probably get a high performance cam too...or get mine ground.

while degreasing and cleaning out my engine bay, finally! I noticed that my tranny mount had no bolts in it and the holes were stripped out from the stock metric fine thread 10mm bolts, which were also MIA. So fixed that up with some coarse thread imperial bolts... gotta love DSM's... fun while they run!

oh yeah....I got my main bearings in today...and I just about crapped my pants when they turned out to be CLEVITES!!!! w00t...for 68 bucks for the set so I'm gonna return my con rod bearings and grab some Clevite ones (hopefully they'll be cheap too...getting a NUTTY discount on these things from a shop that did all the machining). Now I have everything to put my motor back together...still gonna send the cam off to be reground...hopefully it'll be back by the time the bottom end is put back together | |

thanks guys... but unfortunately it was a little bit too low. I raised it up 2 turns on the coilovers. I am going to keep playing with them until i find that magical height.
