If you have to ask, you can't afford. Super nice.

I really want the ball bearing front cover.

89Patches, I sold my spare engine to pay for it.

Prove it, me too. I wish he would at least release the price and ETA of when it will be finished.

I hope it isn't too far off of what a new oem will cost. With the skills they have I would trust my engine with it, no doubt. Not sure if the ball bearings will make a big difference or not. What I'm hoping for is improved oil feed into the block. More better for the 15w-40 rotella. Possibly thicker oils too.

That's not the answers I was looking for. Prove_it was close though /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif


I think FF said $1000-1500.

from what I had seen he expects cost to be around $1500 including the remote OFH and adjustable pressure regulator and limited release in spring.

Is it expensive yeah, but the work that goes into them it really isn't that expensive. I will tell you that Andrew does amazing work and the to get finishes like that take time and everything down to machine, correct G-code and programming, type of cutters, speeds and feeds, and even as far as coolant concentration has to be to a capital T.

Combine the cash you both spent and you can buy another VR-4 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

Looking good though, Craig. I'm glad you're getting back in the swing of things.

Fuel lines and fittings came in today. I thought I had basic criteria for what I wanted, but it ended up that Goodridge 910 PTFE lines were the only real option.


My not so exciting Turbonetics manifold to complete my $200 turbo setup.


These should be showing up any day. I'm much more of a drag racing guy, but I couldn't pass them up. Hotbits DT2 coilovers

Don't feel bad on the coilovers. I bought a set of Muellerized JIC coilovers and pretty much drag race. Stupid good deal to pass up. Seems like a waste, but hey they do help.

Looking very nice sir.

My friend Kris put me in the payment plan, so I was forced to buy them haha. I have BC's on my Subaru and I'm not impressed with the them.

Also finished up putting POR on my suspension parts yesterday, hillbilly style
