  3. Ordered a bunch of the parts to get mine together so i can make it with my car. Hell yea!
  4. Ok tires are now off the rims and rims are packed ready to ship. It cost me about 50 to get rid of tires and to have them packed in boxes so new price is 550 + shipping but sale is currently pending. Here is a photo just before tires were removed these are ready to ship http://i985.photobucket.com/albums/ae334/duko111/IMG_20140708_170009_397.jpg
  5. could be a lot of things fuel pressure. tps head gasket, fuel injectors. When it starts how does it run? Guess that is the best start on this one
  6. I look forward to seeing it in person when i recruit ya to help put my engine in possibly next weekend
  7. Going to use my low miles engine that was shop built out so today I got it dug out and got the crank out to measure. This was the motor that oil cooler wasnt cleaned on. I cant really see on the pic but the crank has very light scratches on it. Only 2500 miles on the rebuild though. It isnt bad and i could use it like it is but I am taking it down to my buddy's shop tomarrow to get it mic'd because I recall hearing it was turned down so I want to get right sized bearings and i plan to ask about the scratches hell they might have something to polish it up quick. http://i985.photobucket.com/albums/ae334/duko111/IMG_20140706_155116_812.jpg
  8. Mostly done now until I get some drill bits tomarrow for front bumper got my shortblock out of my basement and in the garage it was interesting taking my engine stand and cherry picker in the basement so i could move it cause I had to do it by myself. Luckly my house is built into a hil with a walk in basement lol. Got the crank out and will have it mic'ed tomarrow to see what bearings i need and maybe polish it at the shop. I will see what my buddy says and the tractor shop lol. I am not used to the shortblock cause it literally is sooooo clean. 2500 miles on it since a shop rebuild lol.
  9. I am not making a lot of headway today dam gnats
  10. I bought a injector oring gasket set from orielly's for my stock injector and it had the right ones. It wasn't injector specific it would just a collection of orings
  11. About a inch at that end probably. But the bend starts in front of the front suspension from what i can tell so I was just going to notch the front bumper holes on the bumper itself so i can moved it to the right and center it. It should work. I have everything else in place so it should be fine. Fenders line up fine yet so it should be ok. It is a toy anyway that i want to enjoy on the track etc
  12. I am glad yours doesnt have all the extra crap mine took forever to get in order but i also had to peice the engine bay together with my parts car
  13. My silver car now the parts car might have a decient set it only had 97k on it. If it does and i can get em off you can have em
  14. Lol if u seen my thread I been hard at it and will be ordering parts for it this week having to do some twee king now that I found frame is bent where bumper mounts from a past wreck so bumper will line up right
  15. I should be able to make it. My car should be together before than(knock on wood)
  16. exactly what I was looking for thx import
  17. Lol OK its not old if that's what you mean but older than me so older. I am 31
  18. Well got most of the front end together. And officially i am going to have to do some hole work like i thought for the bumper it is off a bit but its not too far where with a bit of off set on the holes i should be able to get it lined up. Decided To elinimate cruise too so i can keep vaccum crap to a minimum. http://i985.photobucket.com/albums/ae334/duko111/IMG_20140704_183441_985.jpg
  19. You might be right. I know up here in midwest a lot of em seem to have low miles like a lot of sports cars because they are horrible in the winter. Because of there they are not ppls daily drivers and are garage kept except for occasional weekend cruises and such. Cars like this camaros, mustangs, vettes dont get driven too much up here and are just scary in the winter so mileage stays down. But then again cars under 40k is still even crazy low for that for a 20+ year old car
  20. Well I should be there as long as my ride is done by then and it should be. I am hard at it and hope to make it!
  21. No badges here either but this was a older bigger guy I say late 30s lol
