he is alive and well teaching in a college on the west coast.

He spray canned his manifold, he never dynoed the car, but it had to be

close to 500hp and he knows how to do things fast and cheap and he does

all his own work.

Yea...



He was telling me that when he installed his FD manifold he didn't retune the motor and ended up boosting more then he thought and blew the hell out of the internals,lol...he showed me pics, very gruesome...

Rob x-7 03-10-2003 09:42 AM

ohhhhhhhh THAT time,lol



it was a quick fix, didnt do that much damage, he had it back on the road in a day. I took those pics.

You talkin bout the same thing,lol...when he blew the motor and as I remember I think he totalled a rotor and housing?



Quick fix, yea...when you've got motors & t78s layin around,lol...

Rob x-7 03-10-2003 11:17 AM

a quick fix none the less.

If you had bought his engine and turbo your car would have been running months ago, lol

Hey now....





I seriously tried getting that thing, but the ******* bank lost my paperwork. I know 13Bace prolly doesn't believe me, but I wasn't joking at all. The proof is that I spent the $3k on my Atkins built motor,lol...so it's not like I didn't have the $$...just bad timing. I still feel bad about that...SORRY ACE!





BTW...my car would have been running months ago if I had ******* oil lines,lol...which should now be here THIS week according to corksport(after the 2nd try at shipping and 2nd try at ordering,lol)...only time will tell.
