im still waiting for my mr2oc account to be approved
big thing im doin is getting a price to get it done so im not thinking it's gonna cost 400 an its actually 600 or visa versa its one of the last 2package big money thing I have to figure out
I did find tweak on here today an pmd him but ill try the site an see if I get a awnser
fighting with my bank an paypal right now cuz when I bought my springs the paypal f#@ked up an sent the payment 2 times so im about 110 in the whole an no one want to fix the goof up (excluding who I bought them from off here ) so about half of what I was Goin to set back this check is going to fix that
but I sold my tc rock crawler so that alil extra forwards my go fast fund

niice man, also IMHO when you buy an engine buying a whole gasket kit is less of a hassle looking for leaks, do it right the first time and have no regrets...You never know how these old engines have been run

[kurt95gt]

I got a rough idea how it was treated
the motor came from a one owner car an they were in there 50s lol only junked it cuz the brakes were shot an the body had some rust

[kurt95gt]

Time for pics

front

side

first part removed

harness removed

dads little grease monkey

an the almost brand new looking timing belt

[kurt95gt]

Tear down I think



4 cams 1 motor yes please


looks clean in there to me

[kurt95gt]

cleaned an painted one valve cover today an started cleaning the block up
finally got my extra 5s harness ordered now to save back up for the conversion (as soon as I can contact someone about doing it )

my christmas gift from the wife

[kurt95gt]

Put the 8 inch subs in the doors today wiring was a pain to do but worth it
now to rewire my 12s to get them as good as the 8s

[kurt95gt]

pic of the sub being put In the door ill have pics of the finished install tomorrow

[stephen_lee]

that motor looks a little sludged up? you said it has 170k miles??

look at mine with almost 300k...

[kurt95gt]

They look skittles better now than in the pic
the pic was taking about 5 minutes after I flipped the motor back over
I had it flipped over cleaning the bottom of the block checking for anything bad
