I still check in most days. Run out of motivation on the 929 Stupid Patrols distracting me.

I think we'll have to dig in and get some updates rolling in Simon. I want to see yours finished and i want to see mine finished.

I got a full time job mon-sat and taking evening classes at school right now but.....


I bought a low compression 13b block and transmission. From what I see now comparing fc mounts to the hc subframe it seems this swap will be close to a straight drop in after I cut the v6 mounts off the subframe. Right now within the next month or 2 if the weather is above freezing I am hoping to pull the v6 out my red hc and fit the 13b. I want to have a running car by may and this is going to be my first ever serious project so I might need some of your fabrication insights in the coming months....

I check in most days, but the time is not on my side.

I picked up a 929 v6 and parted a kia sportage to get some more fe3 parts. But now its winter, so its cold up in here.

I get on the computer when I can. My HC is still going great.
Although now it has some paint issues.

If we all lived a bit closer, a cruise could be on the cards.

oh and too Sim, I'm sorry, about not getting back too you about that part. I've been short of spare time.

I guess you could click on your name in the top right hand corner and go to profile and change your name there. I see Sonny Boy Williams is your new heavyweight champ. I hope he sticks to rugby.
