possible over-torquing of the main and rod caps?

had numerous dreams about my black car getting a bhg after a month or so of that, it finally did get bhg =/

get a 5mge TB and AFM also (believe you can only use the AFM from 1982)

3 ftw!

happy thanksgiving :)

LOL well when my "art" gets big, maybe I'll do that. But I don't want no stinkin' 6MGE. I'm continuing on with my n/a 5MGE journey to a 14 second 1/4 mile like the trooper I am.

everybody climb aboard the broken engine train! I myself have the hole in the block mod. fun times

More pix: Took out the bottom of the block too The other side block chunks oil pan slave cylinder
