Default I need some advice

Ok....so now that i got my car up and running and she looks pretty decent externally...its time for me to go back to working on the engine...

Now i got the D16Z6 swap done just to hold me over and make the car driveable again....I am now looking for a blown b16 or b18 block.....

The reason im looking for a blown one is...when i get it im just gonna leave it out and start putting in better internals to get it ready for the turbo setup...
Im gonna have Timmy assist me with this one....

Now im thinking about getting a second job to help take on this task that i set before me....now i already have a job making $15/hourly as a network admin...and i work the usual 8:30am - 5:00pm shift.... Any suggestions on what type of job you think i should look for...I mean im hoping to have enuff money to start this project come January 1, 2006. I got the usual bills and stuff to pay and i really wanna use my main job for that...Anybody got any suggestions or tips that would be greatly noted and appreciated.

Thanx

-Jae

look into some type of phone job or something. a lot of those start at $10-13/hr

they are easy, they tell you what to say and it's easy to rack up hours

Dude you know if you ever actually autox that thing you'll be in a class with some really hardcore guys. I would leave it where it is if you are serious about autox, spend the money on important things like event fees and tires.
