i wouldn't blame anyone lol, my protege project is taking a while too...

[MazKid]

Welp, my brother explained the Millenia intake manifold to me(lol) so I'm gonna use it. It makes more power and is better for space...

So I picked up one that has all of the sensors and stuff from him aswell as a good oil pan.

Got the pan on tonight, and cleaned up the engine/components a bit. Progress is progress!

I dunno yet. lol


Ordered 2 gaskets for the Y-pipe today, should be picking them up tomorrow.

[nerd racing]

sell the the 323 when you are done lol

[MazKid]

sell the the 323 when you are done lol

That's lookin' like the plan. I want to get rid of it but I want to keep it forever. I wish I could have it put in a big tupperware container and buried in the back yard of whatever house I'm going to buy at some point in the future...

But that technology hasn't been developed yet so I'll prolly sell it. *sigh*

[nerd racing]

oh I was supposed to write, sell it to me when you are done! At least then you would know it is in good hands

[MazKid]

Got more done today.

Prepped the Millenia intake manifold(switched over fuel rails, vac lines, and actuators from the 2 other intake manifolds) and installed it, mocked up the Y-pipe, put on the coil and plug wires, etc etc.

Pics to be posted later - gotta run!
