So what you guys think. More than I wanted to spend but will be here by next weekend.

The only way to prevent continual problems is do it right, NOW. That of course is providing the new parts used don't prematurely fail.

I'd be out really nothing but time if I just ran it providing I don't find any damage. To rebuild would be the same price either way since I'm doing the work myself.

Well, I'll buy the zinc stuff. It can't hurt.

How is the deal with the thing in that place coming along? Or are you too busy shoving your toes in the sand and drinking umbrella drinks?

Darth_Emma · 07-23-2013, 10:09 AM

So... you going to be ready to race at the Fest, PQ?

Not a snoballs chance in hell. engine is in a couple hundred pieces in my garage.

I still have to pull the motor this weekend.

Have some suspension work to do on Rebeccas car but only a few hours worth. Gotta get mine ready to pull. Engine mounts AC and Bell housing bolts plus a few sensor connectors should be all that's left.

But I'll be driving Bonnies Vette.
