Anyways, I was wondering if anyone in MD could give me a hand and help me expedite the process. My zip code is 20678, so it might be a bit far for some of you. Anyone who helps will be rewarded with free food. I'll be able to work on the car from 12/22 - 1/14. (Not Christmas or New Years though)

I need an engine for my GTU. If I don't find one soon, me and Tofuball are just going to rebuild mine with my 2 cores.
I'd much rather buy a known-running motor to stick in it, instead. Good (proved) compression, please. S4 or S5, NA or Turbo, doesn't matter. Anyone?

Joey, I demand to see your new car in person! Pictures just won't cut it!
ANYWAY, all you Maryland people:
If anyone knows where I can get this stuff cheep, or for trade, this is just a list of stuff I'm looking for:
. - Wrench hangers or Oranizers
. - Bench mounted wire wheel
. - Drawer-style toolbox (small, cheep)
. - JB weld. Two of them. Big ones. By tonight.
. - 3/8 inch drive deepwell and short sockets (metric, impact).
. - GOOD Metric Wrench set, from 8mm to 21mm prefferably (but at least till 19mm) (Under $100)
. - 1/2 inch drive metric impact sockets, in sizes above 21mm. (Deep or not)
. - A set of very small screwdrivers
. - Drill press milling set, like this one ($60)
. - Bench-mounted-hydrolic press.
. - Flex drill adaptor
. - A Dremmel
Household stuff I want:
. - Home entertainment center (Not the electronics, just a place to put my TV/VCR/AMP)
. - DVD, VCR (Doesnt have to be that great)
. - Tower or mid-tower speakers (good quality, old is OK)
. - A big TV

Jason, you got plugs for relays cuz all they had at advance auto was 30 amp relays no plugs. I got wire for it too. worst case was going to just hook wires straight to relay prongs and electrical tape them.
