Coming along nice :)

That is some intense double bass action...woah.

looking good!

nice!

Already went there...the guy said they would work but without machining them to match i risk breaking the cam. Some local guys have turned me on to a good machine shop that they said can do it. I am going to look into that.

I finally got my other engine that had low compression torn apart. Found that the head was the cause. No problem, I have an entire motor that has been machined and "built" so I can just bolt the head on there. Somehow in all of my shuffling around and moving I seem to have lost the cam caps...

Good news....it was the head Bad news....I cannot find the cam caps for the other head I have.

yeah the rust is ugly....but its also boat anchor sleeper lol. I was looking at painting it....i will have to see how easy it cleans up with a wire brush and wheel. The oddest part is that there is a small amt. of play in the pistons when they are at the top of the cylinder. However only 1...

Update: Finally got off my ass and did something with the Silver car....the fate of the red one is still unknown. For those that wont read the entire thread, the car came with a mildly built motor and upon further review has poor compression in 1 cylinder. 8 mos after the test was...

I might have to do this. Do you know if they happen to have blue paint for the bulbs? Also you could simply just buy the condoms in whatever color you want?

Ok....how about a NON toyota motor :)

Not about quicker as much as about a blast to drive :)

keep in mind trying to get it a manual transmission

I would ideally love to do a Supercharged Cobra motor.....but I cant find a darn thing to see if it would work

I was thinking about LS1 and 6spd swapping my 89MK3 but it doesnt seem like anyone other than one guy has done it and he had to do alot of custom work. What other motor/tranny swaps have we seen in MK3s?
