IT all really started when I bought her in 98...here she was



It all started when.....after many (5 or so) years of using and trying to improve my 4 cylinder performance I blew a heli coiled plug at an autoX....well that was the end I had already sunk a shit load of $$$$ into my ride and another shit load of time and I was DONE!! time for a sixer!! see the below web site for things I did previously to my lil friend by the time I blew the plug it was a 2056 with a KH header and MSD ign.

Well I am on it now....Progress includes teardown of my 2.4 ltr doner which was a STEAL!! I found this motor on the bird board and bought it because it was a 2.4 with a 7r case for my # 2 engine . Guy had it sitting in the kitchen of his high $$$ NW DC apt on the 9th floor. it came complete!! with hyd tensioners, SSI's, complete CIS, dizzy with Ign module upgrade, and turbo valve covers and something I just discovered...a neat billit sump plate cover.....I paid $950....I sold the CIS for $275 and the rest will pay for plus profit me I am sure as well as give me a 'T' motor 7R case that will end up with my 2.2 'S' pistons and 'S' cams with 'S' spec ported heads!!!!1 Ha ha ha ha ha...2 engines @ 200+ HP....More power Ru hu hu hugh. (yes I will be looking for a ass dragger after I finish this car)

The short block you see is a 50k mile motor already line bored with case savers and will be a 2.7 with 9.5 to 1 Ross P & C's, GE 40 cams, ported heads, webers and a crank fire ignition. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) You see my bench where I have yellow storage bins full of all my rebuild hardware from PP with typed labels...anal I know!!
