No, I work at an independent shop now called Atomic Auto. I work on everything but still about 50% newer Toyota since that's my specialty:) basically got a pay raise and a promotion and closer to my house, plus not flat rate anymore, and I left Toyota on such good terms I can still buy parts at employee cost:)

F*ck yeah! That's great news!!! Good for you!

Yeah IJ used the stock line with no issues on his build. Any pictures from the machine shop? Will you be assembling the engine yourself? Thread needs more pics :p

Perfect, I am keeping mine stock. I will have some pictures of the motor when I pick it up, none from the machine shop yet, but I can provide these in interim! Yes, I will be assembling it myself. I will take lots of pictures when I do this, too, promise.

Cuz I'm a badass I don't need help;) actually I did call you Shawn are you forgetting?? Haha I needed your advice on something but now I forget what it was. :/

Nahh I don't think I'll need a leveling bar I don't even know what it is haha! I'm thinking of just raising the rear end of the car up in the air and put it in kind of level.....

You can still be a bad ass. You've proven your badassedness.
But once you use a leveling bar you'll never want to pick or place motor without one. Plus, it's free!


Sweet haha thanks man I'll take it! When can we meet up? Granted I haven't gotten my motor back yet even but I say we crash Shawns house;)

I actually just headed for Indian territory. Should be back in town by Thursday. Friday night or Saturday morning we should go visit the Shawn and co.? But if Shawn and Bird aren't using Shawn's, you don't need me. If you think of anything else you might need, let us know by then. If I have it, you can use it.
