Why would the timing and CAS be out of spec if you just swapped the engine from one car to another?

Did you swap the CAS too? Unless you took the CAS out or screwed with it in some way, timing would not change at all and the CAS would be completely fine.

haha! Are you sure it was a desk?

Nice job on hot Karl. You should buy a cheap gun and spray it yourself... (that's what I want to do at some point in my life).

Dude... You should've kept the burgundy interior... It was so beautiful.

I'm proud of you, in a "far away" kind of way... way.

Well.... he had a point.

Your burgandy interior looked WAY cleaner than your grey one. The grey one you put in isn't even... grey. It's like tinted brown/yellow or something.

I would've kept it burgandy.

on burgandy.

One of these days I will inventory what I have in grey interior so you can get it. I know for sure that it is much much cleaner than that.

Looks like the project is coming along nicely.

I disagree

Clean looking takes precedent! And burgundy kinda fits some of the rx7 paint colors, such as your dark grey.
