Anthony...wheels look bad ***....Im pretty sure these springs that came off the second money pit I bought are lowering springs...I just have to figure out what the stock spring length is...on a side note, that hks bov I got from a member on here is beyond repair.... I hate getting screwed....I checked back on his posts and he was asking how to adjust it etc before I bought it....oh well....I picked up a blitz dual drive....it should sound bad ***...
Yeah, something didn't seem right about that BOV, glad you got another one cuz that one would have definitely caused you to loose your turbo


^^^Nice Long....nice

I have got two motor pullers, But they do not roll good on rocks. LOL So
I just roll the car, Its just easer for me that way. I did have to reinforse the trusses
so that they would not snap with the motor in the air!! I had it happen to me, the first time
I did it.

HAHAHA Thats funny. On a different note when I spiend the motor over in
the car it gets up to 35-40 psi of oil just by the key!!! So looks like its going to have
some very good oil presser.
