          hows that transmission coming?
          I live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories or more, I'm free. I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

            how much have you invested in the motor alone, not the tranny?

              The motor? Not sure, nor do I feel like adding it all up at the momment lol.


              I need to:
              pick out a clutch kit
              pick up some axles
              get my full set of mounts from AWR
              replace the front wheel bearings
              replace all the front end bushings

              After that, I should be good to go.
