Glade to see you found a socket. I'm lucky, I work around big engines(up to 5000hp), and can get ahold of big breaker bars. The one I used on my turbo II nut was kind of overkill and it came off real easy.

Are you going to come over for the Aug 11 "Cruz"? There should be a good rotary turnout and your just across the sound. I hope to have my Kelmark/TurboII totally finished by then.(interior).I spent all last week tracing down way I didn't have any turn signals and headlights(1978 wiring! I hate electrical work!) Also drilled out the hole for my new boost guage. I just ordered a '93 BOV(My j-spec didn't come with one and I didn't know I really needed one.) I sure would like to find a good tuner for my haltech E6k, I believe I am running real rich(the exhaust really smells bad!) Well, I'll try and clear up the richness my next off week. What year car are you working on? Is it going to be running by 8/11?

 

I think it would be awesome to come over on 8/11 for that Saints car show thing. I am hoping to have my car running in June. It is just an 88 n/a that needed some work. I bought it for cheap as a project car, so now I am going through the engine. The guy I bought it from was cotemplating a V8 swap Here are some pics:





Some road rash that came with the car

 

Other than the hood and fender, the car looks like it is in good shape.

 

Intresting damage, how do you suppose they managed that?

 

Well I think someone either backed into the car with a truck or it was driven under. The guy I bought it from thought something might have hit him on the freeway, some flying debris or something. I think somebody probably just backed into him with a cube van or something.
