yup, just my luck. O well, the ball is rolling, just gotta get this bs outta the way.
I want the motor back in the car in ~2 weeks
you better do it man
Fuck I will be away all next week but I can help out when I get back
Dropped my manifolds off at powdertech to get Jet-hot ceramic coated.
I’m going to be bringing all of my stuff down to Hunt’s machine shop hopefully tomorrow, so I can start to re-assemble this weekend. I really want to have the motor back in the cat in about 2 weeks.
oh, and my Southbend stage 6 clutch (1 of 2 made) will be here today.
YAY
nicks clutch seems to be pretty sick, bet yours will be the same
wait powdertech does jet-hot coating? they did my whole bike i thought they only did powder coating. How much they charge? i got a quote of about $350 from another place
Nice progress bitch! Gotta get that thing out soon
They are a jet hot distributor. They send it to Jet-hot. Costing me about $450 for the manifolds, crosover piece, and the first part of the downpipe.
I’ll try to post up pics of the new parts soon
-Dan
Get a new downpipe yet?
lol
I’m debating on having it remade in the lower section to 3 or 3.5 inch just so it flows better and not all wierd lookin, lol
The DP is siiick, keep it! lol
you would like that. I dunno, I was adding up all the remaining costs for parts/labor/tune that I still have to do and it was crazy. I really only need a few items but it came to about ~$3500 or so more! I could have bought my dad’s car by now…
Yikes! Shit adds up quick for sure!
Tires and Tune alone were ~$1300
add in the new fuel pump, injectors, misc lines, new fan…etc…
I don’t even want to mention how much is into my jalopy now :facepalm
Just think, we’re putting all this money into '92 & '93 cars…I could’ve bought a fucking new car this winter(having sold the remainder of my parts + saving the $$ I made over the winter.):facepalm:facepalm:facepalm:facepalm
