Oh and partly, i wanted you guys to keep a lookout for good deals on the parts. I’m in no rush to do this… its just a goal, so if you see any of the stuff i’m looking for, for sale on forums, friends, ebay whatever… let me know. Im just going to buy shit when its a good deal and put it together slowly.

I know a guy with a K20a2 that needs either a bottom end or a head that might go cheap w/ 60k on it…not too sure which one is bad but you could find either for not bad prices.
