What did you do to your car today?

[Megatron]

Spun a bearing.

Bought my car in that condition 10mos ago, still not on the road. I hate being poor.

Ya man its been one thing after another. Went our last fall to the track. First pass was great and the motor had a bad hickup 100 few before the eighth mile. Did a leak down test on it and found that the guy that did my head work cut a few valve seats off center to the valve guide so the valve seats took a shit that pass. Had the heads done threw at a local machine shop here in flint 2 months ago and went out to the track 4 weeks ago to lapeer and my first 2 passes were good, afr was way rich so I was leaning it out and as I kept making a couple more passes I noticed it was revving threw the gears faster and faster and the car was getting slower lol


Took the trans apart and it blew the cast iron sealing ring out on the pump . So it's been one thing after another . It's all back together now and started it today and everything seems kosher now. .. that damn trans only had 11 passes on it . My trans guy took care of it. Kind of interesting learning how to build an auto. .. guess he's had a couple problems with cast sealing rings on some after market valve bodies with really high line pressure so we put Teflon seals on it now


Also welded my torque arm cross member into my Mwc sfc cause it was starting to rip the factory mounts off. Must be 265 ft lbs of torque

got the dipstick tube out! I guess it just needed to soak in the penetrating oil for a bit longer. Everything is tore down, hoping to have the headers by next weekend.

This. Hiding the wiring over the wheel well, under the wheel well. Looks a lot better this way.

It is totally worth it and doesn't take long at all.

[DRYSUMP]

Changed my oil, put on my new set of track pads for this coming weekend, bled my brakes and clutch and filled with new AP600, cleaned underneath the car and checked bolts, Fred tested my brakes while I cleaned up the shop and promptly got pulled over!

Dried the rain that fell on it while I was working.


Not to throw it off topic but would that wire tuck work for third gens?
