    Well me and my freind John got my engine in yesterday. Sounds pretty good, it has got a small exhaust leak. I hope I can get an aluminum intake pretty soon, I would have went ahead and got one but my car has to be at the upholstery shop Wed. and I am cutting it close on the cash.

    Nothing freshens up a car like a detailed engine bay and a freshly painted engine. Looks great!
