Rebuild Kit Just Arrived

My rebuild kit just arrived. I'm so happy I opened it and looked at it like a kid in a candy stop. One problem though they just set it on top of my mail box and didnt bring it to the door!! WTF I wouldnt do that its 840 bucks worth of metal and rubber bitch! All I have to wait on now is my 2 1/8 socket that I ordered today ,and I'm ready. And my race springs. I hope my baby will be on the road within 4 weeks. A friend of mine who has done this before is helping me so wish me luck guys.

That day I got all the parts for my motor....was sad yet happy. I was happy to get the buying of the parts out of the way. When the guy behind the counter put most of the expensive stuff in a sandwich zip lock baggy and then placed it and a gasket kit in a ralphs grocery bag and handed it to me.........$870 bux?????? in here????? just seemed wrong. like buying drugs or something. Seemed like there should have been more in that bag for that much money. Reminded me that I need to get into another business.

haha, the "super nut" was more of a bitch tightening for me! took three guys and a long pole. Impact wrench is a flywheel nuts worst nightmare though, it stands no chance!
