Hey guys been a while! Still not having any luck with uploads yet but I'll work on it tonight and hopefully have pictures up today or tomorrow!Here's a few updates:
Got most of the body damage finished and almost done assembling parts for the current build!
Look, these sites are still thriving because people can come to them for info about their cars and even find DIYs for working on their cars. They are able to interact with people that have similar interests and avoid the drama. When you post up throwing you two cents around about whatever...
Wow was that post necessary? Op asked about car meets, people replied where to find them. Your comment has added nothing but whining and bad grammar to the thread. You should take your venting somewhere else I'm sure facebook has a group you can join for that. ;)
Guitarkid the belt is fine, and I'm not sure how to check timing on a car that won't turn, how would I go about that?

The torque wrench is just what Iused it had nothing to do with the torque part it was just to turn the crank. It was very easy to turn, and now not at all the first time...
The clutch feels fine, supposed to be an exedy clutch, still stock feel though, abd idk about the timing, but it ran as a daily till it stopped sui I couldn't see it getting out of timing
I had removed a spectre air filter that was held on by a rusted old coat hanger and a greddy blow off that was missing the adjustment screw. On top of that it has some rusted RoadRace intercooler piping run to the stock intercooler and half the bolts are missing from the crossmember lol
This cars miles are at 182k abd the previous owner didn't know anything about maintenance, when I got it, it had barely a quart of oil and the same could be said about the coolant level. Everything about the car was done wrong so to be honest I am catching up with this one.
Tyler auto x is just a start for behind the wheel time my goal is on bigger tracks, and to be honest I got the car with a "seized motor" and I tried to turn the crank from the pulley and it moved effortlessly, then today I tried again and nothing, won't even budge...
Yes, finally got to it today drained the oil to pull the pan and decided to try to turn the crank again, and it's not moving at all now :/ this car just wants a new motor for sure
Hey Wing3r09, thanks, yes I am planning a holset 35hx, aiming to get around 550 awhp but for now I will be doing a 6 bolt swap as my crank decided to walk. So I'll be going from there, and doing as much suspension work as I can in the mean time.
