Well, i didn't tell you guys earlier because i dont want to give MCS a bad reputation. we had a mishap and only my block and head were shipped back, no accessories. i got my valve cover back yesterday along with an oil pan. not my oil pan though, one from an mr2. so now i need to make a stupid block off piece for that stupid sensor i dont have.
I cant get any work done till the other box of parts comes in. i still need my oil and water pump, head gasket, cam gears, crank pulley, oil pick up, ect. I talked to Shawn about not receiving my parts and he was great to fix the problem. Shipped them out express and i should get my other box of parts today. if it comes in today i hope to have the car running this weekend. -------------------- |

in the end, your car will be worth all the time and effort
and that is exactly why you are going to have to come visit me down here at the academy in connecticut and take me for a ride since my 3s is off the road until 2010.

For as many times you have taken that motor out, should've just done a engine swap to my car.
Motor looks good. -------------------- |
