Maybe....just maybe......if we can keep those pesky police guys away from our fun!! :rlaugh: This time I'll know it's a race and actually get beat by you. :rlaugh::stick:

**Update** So last week I brought the cam to CamMotion. They said that the scarring was a little too deep to just polish it out but they said it could be regrinded to give all the lobes a fresh flat surface. They assured me that the specs won't change at all. So I let them do that. While I was...

Well I have no car shenanigans to share since its been down for a solid 2 years. :cry:

I don't use Royal Purple. I have no idea why the oil looks that color. I wasn't even using synthetic oil. I was using regular Valvoline 10W-40. I figured I was good because I changed the oil so often. I changed it maybe every 1000 miles or after about 4 or 5 fun nights with my buddies running...

That's why I'm bringing it back to CamMotion. I'm getting them to check to see if the scarring affected the specs. If not, they should be able to polish it smooth again.

That's because fender mounted machine guns falls under "Open Carry" :rlaugh::runaway:

Hey guys! Remember me?! I've been gone for few years. A lot has happened...divorce, moving back with my mom and stepdad, COVID, getting back on my feet, bought a house, etc....and the car has been down for most of that time. Lifter failure was the culprit. Luckily it was audible when it...

I'm all for gun ownership. It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. I have the same moto for a bunch of horsepower.:D:cool:

Perception is everything, I guess. :shrug::rlaugh: My block is a Dart Sportsman block....it can handle it. :D:cool: Thanks Mike! Things are definitely going good for me lately.:nice:

:rlaugh:You thought we were racing!!! When I realized you might be racing me I started to reel you in but the d@mn local police disturbed me!:doh: But you hit me right it heart with that one, Mike. Don't you get all mushy on me, buddy. :D:p:cheers: As for the car, I have to pull the cam out...

The short version is: Life had/has me by the choke-hold Divorce Moved back with my mom and stepdad in 2019 to get back on my feet COVID Bought my house this past February Just got promoted on my job(NOFD) I just don't have much free time to turn wrenches on the car and not a lot of time to get...

The Monster is looking great Mike! I just made a "Cliff's Notes" attempt of catching up on this thread. :D

Hey Dave! Did you miss me??? I asked Mike that same question....no answer yet.:rlaugh: It's been probably a year or more since I've been around here. Still chugging along on the car, huh? I'm just passing thru to see how you guys are doing and how the projects are going. I'm try to scroll...

Hey Mike!! Did ya miss me? :D Ok I'm officially lost as far as what has been done to the car since I last was a regular here. Do you actually have a 2JZ or are you contemplating on getting one??? I don't have time to go back a whole year into this thread. I'm really just popping in on a...

I bought the PIMPxs this past fall. I also bought the engine harness that's customized to the PIMPxs, wide band O2 kit(Spartan I think), and A/F gauge. The grand total came to about $1600. I haven't installed it all on the car yet tho.

Mike that would be just your average T-n-T night with the fellas. That what me and my buddies do. Or a private track rental....which is expensive if you don't have enough guys.

I just thought you were considering making the scoop/nostril that's on the Cyclone and maybe considering the wing. What happened to getting our opinion on indeas for the Monster? I feel so left out, Mike. Did you ever consider OUR feelings, Mike? :rlaugh::hide:

Update: So last week I was getting the car ready for Cruisin the Coast. I hadn't adjusted the rear suspension back to where it needed to be since I put the solid motor mounts on. I just had to put the lower control arms bck to stock length and set my pinion angle. All of that stuff was all out...

You are definiately preaching to the chior. I went through so many ups and down during the build and repair of my car to this point it made me realize how dedicated to it and how good my friends are. Whenever I'm ready to throw in the towel my friends reenergize me to keep going. I almost gave...

Well I know I won't have a turbo by next year so the only difference would be that the car would be tuned better. And I don't think you'd get under my skin enough for me to want to hit you. I'm a firefighter so my skin is thicker than leather. I'd just want a rematch. :cool: And yes we would...
