Yo fool!!
You gotta get active on here dude

I think we should be able to drive it this weekend.
I picked up some oil last night, so the only other thing I'm missing right now is come colder spark plugs. I think if I can't get 7 range before the weekend I'll just run some GSR plugs(6 range) like Abel's(Taco15 btw) doing. If he can run gsr plugs no problem on his motor, I can too, cause it's about the same compression.

At least he'll know if it's good. Saves him the trouble of doing the swap twice.

I don't know if I'll mess with it. If it breaks, it breaks. I sue KMS, get some money back .

I'm tempted to pull the head off and check it out, but I want my car running guys... bad. Hopefully you can understand how patient I've had to be thusfar, and now that my motor is in, I wait longer to put it in? no. It's going in today, and driving today.

Update later!!
Thanks guys. A lot.
Oh, btw, we just broke 12,000 views in this thread.

don't open up the motor. If you open it and it later breaks KMS could blame you.

I'm at school.. (so much for learning about turbojets)
I'll be home in about 1/2 an hour, and will get to work.
It'll be in and hopefully running today!

Yeah, but that doesn't include the cost of mounts, shift linkage, axles, ECU, and all the other nickle and dime shit that would make a GSR swap WAY more expensive.

you're not allowed to have an oppinion on this... your "swap" would be easier if you simply built a tube frame and bolted 78cvcc body panels to it
all those -40 degree days made you lose your damn mind
