Hey Loser!! Quit jumping into my threads <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Your head gaskets "should be there any day" according to Barry at ARE. My pistons/rods/rings are on the way as well! <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" /> I tried your cell twice today and emailed both addresses. Figured you'd be psyched about FINALLY getting the gaskets. I gotta get busy on my shortblock! So do you!

cable:
Isn't the turbo you have the same one mightymouse used to have in his car? If so, thats one mean turbo. 2 engines down and the turbo is still going strong.

But in all seriousness, sorry to hear about it. Hope you get it running again soon.
