Update 10/22
After a couple weeks of not posting I figured I'd just let you guys know that I'm still here...
I've been ordering stuff for the motor..
Valve cover gasket, IM & EM gaskets, water pump, clutch, motor mount inserts, etc.. Just stuff I'll need to replace.
I also installed some lowering springs. 1.75" ft / 2.00" rr. S2 springs, GR-2 struts.
After some un-nessesary beating on his own car by Abel(
Taco15).... we finally swapped the springs(his lowering springs onto my ride, my stock springs onto his ride.)
I'm waiting on the 'after' pic until the motor is dropped in. however, the ride height with the motor out looks just like the stock ride height with it in!!
------------
KMS should be done with my motor very soon. He's hoping to have it back to me by the end of the month, which doesnt give him very much time left!
They've installed most of the bottom end, and are now focusing on the head now... as far as I know.
I'll chat with him tomorrow at 1:00 and see what he says. if it's anything worth telling you guys, you'll hear from me.
--------
I'll be getting a ITR basemap put on my ecu(p28) to break in the motor soon... hopefully.
I can't be running an 11:1 motor on a ecu reading 9.5!
---------
Anyway... heres where I am.....
.....waiting on the motor......
