Default what to do, what to do...

been savin up for my all motor LS build....

my friend has another ITR shortblock he said 500 as is or 700 fixed, needs 1 rod and 1 piston.

for those that dont know, i HAD a b18c5 shortblock and a b16a1 head and i sold it cuz i didnt have money to get a tranny and finish the swap :happysad:

so do i:

1. have it fixed, pay the 700 and use it

2. buy it as is, swap out my LS crank and some aftermarket rods for more stroke

3. not buy it at all, stick with the b18b build

ahaha.
I don't think its in my place to give you my advice. I don't know what you want out of your car, and I don't know how much you want to spend.

if i really were serious, i wouldn't sell it until spring. the jeep might need an early "retirement" and then i would have no other car.

plus, you know how i am about the teg...i don't know if i can ever really let it go :happysad:

i'll let you know though, james.

i took a close look at my rear fender yesterday...

lets just say it made me kinda sick to my stomach

so option 4 might really be 4. dont care about engine work, fix the fender before the car isnt worth shit :sad:
