Yep, I just called by buddy in Puerto Rico and he said: "Damn, you call too much...I'm gonna drop a nut inside your cylinder, haha. Oh, talking about cylinders, I just got done opening up you 7A-FE and your #3 is totally brand new looking. It's just the piston that's cracked and the upper ring is broke but everything else is brand new. I'll replace it lickity split when I get the parts...you'll be boosting in no time. You're coming Tuesday, right? By Thursday I can have the parts...I'll replace rod bearings, pistons and rings just to be safe...and install a metal headgasket. Damn dude, that engine is brand new...no ****. Impressive how much it smoked through just that piston.". Anyway guys, I'm so happy...what a Christmas present. I'll be boosting, yayyy...the 7A-FE still stands...and it resisted 15 PSI bursts with stock injectors. My engine came macho from the factory, LOL.
