Company Perk :) You guys ship much bigger crap all the time
|
haha $112 to ship 236 lbs clear across the US.

Ill come do some engine pulling. Haven't worried about pulling a Rx8 motor yet but have pulled plenty of motors in the past. Make sure you have a BFH and a big ass screw driver.

I smell a D**K measuring contest ;)

a few posts deleted, drunk posting and secrets are not a good combo ...
but you have a premier Renesis engine builder only one state away, hopefully the wait won't be too long |
Yep - Oregon does have talent - that's for sure.

so the plan seems to be changing :suspect:
|
I'm on the fence for new housings... Trying to sell crap to make my decision easier. Paul said I could use the existing housings.

sorry, I just assumed you already had them planned :dunno:

i lot of people are now not using the vdi---but to each his own. It makes the world more interesting. Like american football players , playing in Italy!
What I have in mind --since i have sealed mine is to drill out a big area where the "valve used to be. Why? I dont have a clue. It will just look different. |
