If you're referring to my last post, it wasn't intentional & I added an explanation...

mouth breathers are everywhere. Does "do you want to supersize your order" sound familiar? EDIT: Not directed towards anyone in particular, just saying that people that are dumb than a bucket of rocks can be found in any field of work....

So there's actually three pay raises. The standard 2.2%, the enlisted 'targeted' & the officers 'longevity' raise. the standard 2.2% isn't huge, but in 2000, the E-1's made $930.30/mo. In 2007, they will make $1301. That's nearly a 40% raise in 6 years, and that's not good?

Research, my friend, research. You will find that the motor will be $800, but the rest of the stuff to finish the swap will be another $5000. Do yourself a favor, research before spending a dime...

That's not the point. The point is that, statistically, you have a better chance of getting killed in a car wreck while in the states then you do getting killed in Iraq.

You're right, research is key to everything. By researching, you would have found out that Tricare Extra & Standard are options to the family member, whereas Prime is available to all, free of charge. So, when are you going to post the information for the second planned pay raise in '07...

Thanks Josh. Are you in town?

If it were me, and at one time it was, I would take a break from it for a while. After putting so much sweat, money & time into my 7M only to have to part with it, it was a kick in the nuts. So bad that I almost sold the car, but my wife wouldn't let me. This time around, things don't have to...

Umm, Greg, military families get FREE drugs. You can't get more inexpensive than that. Not to mention that the medical is FREE too. Research is a good thing, it keeps you from looking stupid. Also, There are two pay raises scheduled for '07, so your claim is factually false. Further...

swapped over the A/C top plate & installed Aaron's oil pressure sending unit extention too...

Kinda like driving a car too? Cool 'Sweep, my hat's off to ya. The tax free thing is only when you're deployed though....

Worth watching? You owe me 8:00....

Finally, I have the balance of parts I need. New shift fork (only because you can't order the pin & snap ring seperately :icon_conf ), snap rings & plate washers for the clutch assembly, throw out bearing, pilot bearing, et al... I have the SPEC III installed & the lightend flywheel mocked...

yes

LOL, I got it. I bought a new snap ring, so it was a true PITA...

Yes, I do. He inferred that I'm too stupid to do anything else with my life. Forget that I've owned a business for almost 9 years now.... What's your point?

could some explain the technique for putting the snap ring that holds the wave washer & plate washer on?

Only a mod can do it. Good luck on your build, it looks as if you're approaching it correctly.

Thanks, that's how I roll! :biglaugh:

I'm finally making some more progress. The FedEx man brought me a package that should contain the balance of the parts needed to finish the swap. I bead blasted a lot of parts to clean the motor up a bit, but I forgot to take one piece with me. :3d_frown: I guess I will have to go back...
