Anything in specific you're looking for? I need to get a few flapper wheels and face shield before I really start on the bodywork. Was just gonna leave it be, but I think I'll sand down the whole body and slab some decent paint on it down the road. It is dry as a bone here, so no worries about...

Seriously? If there is one group of people who can go jump off a cliff for criticizing someone for swapping an engine out, it would be, without fail, the 240 crowd. Say what you will, but I'm more surprised by a KA engine in one of those than by ANY swap.

Goes to show you one of two things: -Great race cars don't always make great street cars, or... -Mustang owners are sometimes full of it. :p

Talk to Devin Leblanc on here, he can set you up with a nice, stout A34x variant for you. :)

That's just you clicking "play" over and over again to experience the awesome within. :rofl:

Not really my thing, but I know a few people that would probably like it. That chorus an homage to Cobain? :p

Hey Tommy, been a few months, what's the word on this build? I've made a small bit of progress on mine, made a small commitment as far as drivetrain donor... you? Curious, I would be willing to bet the frame that came with our vehicles is quite similar, if not the same. I still need to measure...

No worries man, hard rock/metal is a vast genre. I'm in the same boat, just a few years older. Not sure why, but it surprised my mom when I started listening to Aerosmith. Then she gave me some old Black Sabbath tapes she had, and well... it all kinda went downhill from there. Speaking of...

Give him some credit JJ, he did call it 'The'... :p

Uhhhhhh... huh? Have you been eating the asbestos and lead paint I've been scraping off my car?

For reference, I paid $2200 for my engine, shipped to the shop, for my 1j setup, and that came with an R154. I live in the middle of nowhere too, so considering your location, you have PLENTY of available options on an engine. I guess another thing to consider, do you trust this guy enough to...

Usually works well IF the person behind you can even see them. People tend to park so close behind you at lights where I live that I don't feel the least bit sorry that I don't have a cat on my car.

Forgot to ask, did you get this sorted out the other day?

If you're having breakup problems over 6psi, I would suggest making sure your spark plugs are still somewhat clean and are gapped around .028 each. Never trust a 'pre-gapped' plug. ;)

Almost? Damn... we gotta work harder then. ;) You know, you might be past the BHG, but you won't be past the paranoia for a good long while. :p

Check for shorts in the wiring, and check all of your grounds. Might be missing some punctuation in there somewhere too.

I used one of those things that you cap off the 2-3" holes in office desks with, since my stock harness hole wasn't used when we swapped to the 1j. Worked pretty well, and as far as I know, I haven't had any rats in the car.

If it were anywhere but Florida that this were happening, I would think it to be common sense, but you should NOT drive the car until this is figured out. Might be a good idea to keep a fire extinguisher handy too. ;)

I'm thinking he means just the turbo Lonnie. Otherwise, yeah, he would be out of his mind to think that would happen with $700. :p

If the 1j (or 2j) you get comes with an auto trans, pull the bellhousing from that one, and put it on your trans. ;)
