Exclamation Hold the Phone! i Need a Engine Hoist!

Hey guys, me and Smitter are doing my engine install, and its all ready to be put in today, but we are out of a Hoist! So hey, if any one in Calgary has a Engine Hoist Id love to take it off your hands, and if you would be willing to help, that would be awesome! Food and Drinks on me! Hit me up a PM if you have a hoist and/or want to help out with the install. It could even be tonight (May10th) before its dark out. Thanks a bunch guys!

-Mark

Thanks Andrew. Adam has committed to a delivery date of Friday May 23. And I know he always keeps his word. Installation date (weather permitting) will be saturday May 24th so I can take her out saturday night. Going with S4 rotors this time, donated by Max. These happen to be 3mm, which combined with the tougher s4 rotors will make for a bullet proof assembly at the cost of only a few hp. Even though Adam now prefers 2mm, we are gonna use the 3mm rotors (I have budget constraints) and use Adams seals. Ground up rebuild, again, but I'll be much more careful with the tune this time . So much for experimenting with timing curves, now I'll do the experimenting on a distributor machine first!
