Nope, no damage was done after I pulled all the parts out the ramps saved it. I just have my engine torn down and won't need a bunch of the parts for sequential.

Finally fixed my oil leaking turbo, just got done putting it back together.

Next, need to fix a striped stud on the manifold, then reinstall the turbo.

Finally got a Fly RX7 Pod. Wow. I now know why people go crazy trying to buy these. The quality is amazing. I never thought I would be thrilled by a gauge pod but you are doing your car a disservice in buying anything else if you run pods in the center speaker location.

@Mark - This thing is solid dude. It is very, very, very well made. All I'm going to say is my old Prosport Pod deformed from the sun. This thing is part CNC'd and Injection Molded and is strong. I bet my fat *** could stand on it and not break it.

Lies. Pics or it didn't happen. No one replaces a tail light bulb. Only ASE Certified Mechanics or Puerto Rican builders know enough about the rotary engine to do that job. =)
