The first engine I took to Atlanta was unusable so I had to pull the engine out of the SE and send it to Atlanta. Hopefully this one will be rebuildable, I'm out of engines to send. Here's pics of me and my boys. I'm the ugly fat one with the reggae alien shirt on.

 

sweeeet, hope the new engine works this time. LOL

 

 

Between the two engines they should hopefully be able to build one kickass one

I bought an engine from a guy for cheap, but the more people I see send engines for rebuild the more I think that the extra one I bought won't be rebuildable... Oh well, maybe I'll just use it to learn on for my own rebuild.

You have a lot of helpers.

 

These guys just aint helpers, they are gurus!

The skinny guy (Danny) built this:






The Dude with the blue suit on (oscar) built a fine turbo 12a 510. (the 5 and Dime!!)



And my Engine builder (Juan Delgado) has the 490hp 12a turbo PP dragstrip killer Datsun!

 

Cool! I need to do that to my 13B powered Midget!

 

Do what?

 

The heavy duty diff since my car's gone through a couple stockers back when it had a 12A in it.

 

Haha I helped pull an engine out of a T2 last night with that same harbor freight shop crane.

 

thats danny from autotronix in gainesville. ive been there and talked to him before. ive seen the MG run at the track in commerce. man that thing is mean. when i went before he had a 10 second corrolla with a rotary in it for sale. he was gonig to build my engine until i had to call it off due to college

 

Small world, huh?

 

I'll say. I also have one of those cheap yellow cranes (with folding legs).

 

It gets the job done. except ours didn't have folding legs.

 

I think it took us longer to assemble our cheap *** crane than it did to remove the engine.

 

It certainly took me longer to assemble mine than it usually does to mate an engine to a tranny. I think my personal best is 5 minutes from hanging from the crane, to mated to the bellhousing and all bolts in place finger tight, including the front cover mount.
