Hard enough to spin a rod bearing at Charlotte. It's sitting for a few months, waiting for another round of build-ups. I'm trying to convince him to let fix it because ALL it needs is a turned crank and an oversized bearing, but he insists on getting an aluminum short block from Poland instead? I think he's crazy. He really doesn't need it. The bores are going to be fine, he just needs some machine work on the crank. He doesn't trust ME doing the work. Hmmmm. OK. More like, I don't know if I want the liability... But I HEARD it, and can already tell what's wrong. I've always thought these things needed more valve cover breathers.

 

Now premium unleaded is $2.09 9/10ths for a gallon.

With the info I just gave you, you CAN tell if they're real or not .

 

Great work on the DSM :eek3:

 

hahaha...i wouldnt want the liability either. but damn, nice to hear that it doesnt waste its life being a display model

 

that car is the sickest roadster evAr

 

Thanks!

I'm in the process of updating my site again today.

The motor's going in this afternoon, but it probably won't be ready to start for a week. I have to finish rebuilding my PS pump (5 bolts and a seal), obtain a oil and ps air-oil cooler and custom fab some lines for them. Should be fun.

I thought I'd have it done already, but there's a damn Chevy Caprice clogging up the bay I need, and the guy working on it is part-time. I'm about to push that sucker into the street.

 

I obtained that Mirage on the page for $80 and gave it to a friend of mine. It was a steal. Runs but doesn't drive, 4 brand new tires on it, and that's a rare color for a Mirage. He's putting a NA 4g63 in it with a 150 shot of nitrous. Should be done in about 4-5 months. Should run 12's. The guy I gave it to already has the motor, and was also the guy that gave me both D15B7's for my civic for free + helped me rebuild them. It was the least I could do. Literally.
