went to a meet, drove with some really cool friends.......................and got my drive line in this morning to be able to do this all.......great day all in all gotta love the 7 world to be able to do it

 

bought 4 new tires, put my other two American racing / eagle wheels on, speed rolled one fender JUST enough that it didn't rub, and went to a meeting in the afternoon. gotta finish the fenders tomorrow after work....

 

Went over to Jeb's for an afternoon of rotary pleasantries. See you again next weekend.

 

popped an engine

 

WOAH NOW. Keep it PG in here. That's Dirty.

I installed a idler arm bushing today. yanked the smog pump off too.

 

Finished pulling my motor yesterday. Anyone else do it without an engine hoist?

 

At WSU I pulled and replaced my ...... hmm... 5th or 6th engine in a parking lot with 2 people on each side, a rope, and a fence post. Wasn't fun but it can be done a few inches at a time. Took a good 3 hours.

 

Nice. I had a little help from my jack, but I had to lift it off my motor mounts on my own, hold it there on the steering rack while I took the motor mounts all the way off + then lowered it with one hand and held it steady with the other. I think I'll use a lift when I put it back in.

 

2 strong people and a 4x4x10 wrap the strap around the post once and that way you can get some tilt on it. to alleviate the pain make sure the e-brake is on and the trans is in gear. That way you can turn the front pulley nut to mate the clutch splines. Once it is close just wiggle and get the exhaust side lower bolt on hand tight. remove the clutch slave cylinder from the mounting point to alleviate the squeeze point.

And the most important thing of all, patience. Lol.

 

got a new motor for the fd here comes 800+ hp

 

Nice score. What build number is it?

 

its a zero code block but the crank was replaced with the newer. i am working on another 20b block right now.

 

That's just plain sexy.

I got sick of looking at the fake carbon fiber vinyl I put on center pieces so I pulled them out, and my radio surround and after cleaning them real good, hit with first coat of flat black.

 

Removed my rats nest and fixed all the vac leaks sounds alot better now

 

blew another trans

 

Not even going to go there. Lol.

I had to wash my windshield in brakleen today, the whole front of my car is speckled in oil from a semi that decided to blow it out it's exhaust....... gotta get the rest off tomorrow mornin'

 

So it wasn't factory assembled? Maybe one that a shop put together? Let us know how it looks inside if you tear it down.

 

I have. Just unbolted everything, stood on the strut towers and pulled it out with a tow strap lol.
