Quick-o Timeline



Install Pineapple Engine: May 2003

Dyno Engine in ATL: June 2003 112 HP

Dyno Engine in Charlotte: July 2003 119 HP

Aug/Sept 2003, Car starts spitting coolant. See Vid on Voskos site

Oct 2003: Disgusted, unable to reach ob at Pineapple, Shop Goon tells me to add stop leak. Finally get ahold of Rob, agrees to warrenty

Mar 2004: During all the past periods. My elbow/shoulder/neck are killing me. Heavy painkillers dont help. Pull engine and ship to Pineapple Racing. Have C5/C6 Vertabrae Fused. Mucho long recovery

Late June 2004: Pineapple Racing P-Port arrive, however I am not in any shape to install.

Dec 2004: Planning for NP Winter Retreat, start install

Feb 2005, Install not complete, still not comfortable with Pineapple's work (Based on several engine meltdown reports)

April 2005: Pull P-Port: find several instances of sloppy/lazy workmanship. Main none is NO Oil Jets in E-Shaft.

May 2005: Rotating Assembly Balanced

Sept 2005: Engine still disassembled on bench

We were blessed with neighbors who're more prone to "coming over and seeing what's up" than ones who would complain. The ones across the street have a vert and have come over once or twice when we've fired the FD up.

the more you think about crusing around in a FC the less you want to finish the project ...

C'mon, Banzai. Swallow some painkillers and get out there in that garage! The redneck hotties will be all over you once you get that sexy FC on the road.
