How much did you buy that head from Joe for?

Change of plans for me too bro...the 2.3 wont be going in until I get the max results out of the stock block and E316g combo on our shitty 90 oct fuel...

after that the built 2.3 and holset and ewg are going in...and im planning on running VP109 and possibly meth as well...hopefully Seth can get my tune on point as I make a leap for mid to low 10's...5 more months of this shitty deployment left...5 more month closer to the fastest GVR4 in the state....LOL
I paid 240 for it, I'm pissed because the head me sold me ended up costing more and the new head isnt ported.
 
How late will you be there on monday? I live like a minute away from Mirror Lake but I might be in Anchorage.

ha well that all depends on how many people go. these meets tend to be failed attempts most of the time and considering its tomorrow and we only have a bunch of maybes im not sure if i'm even gonna bother
 
well im going to anchorage to do a some errands so on the way back i could meet you there if you wanted.
 
I'm for sure going to be there at 6:30. I have a lot of fixes to do still so it's not going to be that impressive.
 
Ya sorry for not showing up CJ. I was on my way into anchorage when the tranny in my dads truck went out:( Second tranny i've blown in 2 months...ugh
 
Well CJ and I had fun even though no one else showed up. AKeclipseGSX, after you and I left I realized I knew you from somewhere. I played tennis with you when I was a senior. My brother said that "CJ" got a red eclipse and I should go see it. I just never made the connection until I got back home.

Yeah you looked familiar but I couldn't put it together either. Okay so that's where I know you from. And Lance it's fine, that's not your fault ha.
 
ya i know i was just pissed though. I leave on monday and I desperately wanna see some AK DSMs
 
I can do one on either Thursday, Friday, or Sunday. Same place, time of day doesn't matter to me.
 
I didn't get home till 6:30pm thanks to the traffic coming out of Anchorage but I did hear on the Radio somebody flipped there auto behind us on the Glen.So I didn't make it either I'll try and make the next one.
 
I could do it tonight if i had a ride but my parents won't let me take either of their vehicles
 
The good weather comes out, AK Maniak has free time, my car decides to die. Go figure.
 
I had a crack in my valve cover which was getting oil into the third spark plug well. From the engine compression, the spark plug got cross threaded and would not sit properly anymore. When I looked at it all I saw was a spark plug wire sitting up higher than the rest, so I was pushing pretty hard on the wire to get it to sit right. I ended up bending the metal inside the spark plug wire and it got stuck onto the spark plug. So I went out and bouth all new spark plug wires. Put them on, and now it started misfiring. At about this point I'm pretty pissed, so I got my car home and put it into the garage. Went out and got all new spark plugs the next day, and installed those. (Good thing too, because the old ones didn't look so good.) Still, misfirng. Well now I'm severly frustrated and just take it down to the shop, said fix it and how much will it cost. Come to find out I had to of the plugs in the wrong firing order. On the bright side of things, my they fixed my speedometer for me and replaced some screws that were missing. Sorry for the long explanation.
 
Well my valve cover is cracked and sprays oil in higher rpms, also my rear driveline u-joint has some play, my left front CV inner boot is damaged/worn and my rear sway bar bushings are worn. It's what I call a project.
The car runs though. I'm just trying to find a place to order all the parts on so shipping sin't so expensive. Any ideas where I can maybe go get the parts or get them shipped from?
