Well, my engine is now on the floor of my garage about 5 feet from the car with the tranny and turbo's still hooked up to it...for some reason I have this odd mixture of being excited and dreading that my car will never run again...



91 days until the Revolution...and the clock is running to get her back together again.

Unless youhave some major plans for this you shouldn't worry. It took me 2 months to do a rebuild at a leisurely pace and a lot of waiting on parts.

I lost a coolant seal sitting in the woodward dream cruise, which is a really lousy name for sitting in four lanes of traffic moving 5" in 2 hours in 110 degree weather near Detroit.

Yeah, the engine is all stripped down, nothing left on it, ready to make sure there are not fluids left in it so we can wrap it and strap it to a pallette...
