So to not dive to deep into real life, my dog is progressively getting sicker and i sold 138/2000. It sold to a close friend and he let me keep some parts and the badge number and associated items because i wanted them and to also offset the value of the vehicle. while i was selling everything off i had put my snowmobile up and i got an offer to trade my sled to save another VR4. It had no cams or gears, FPR, or ECU in it. The car is currently at my buddies house in dayton where it was only supposed to be the install of those parts and a head gasket swap and turned into my anal retentive friend pulling apart and rebuilding the head after he found a few things, the worst of which was the head bolts weren't torqued at all.
stock cam, gears and FPR, but i splurged and got a link for the car as it really needs it with everything done to it.
