I'm getting excited.
Last October I was getting major blow by so I stopped driving the car. I put about 40 miles on it between October 07 and the end of April when I finally got to tear it down. Piston #7 was dead. Today I dropped the block, new pistons/rods and bearings off at the machine shop to get cleaned/balanced and ready to be reassembled.
I get it back next week.
I can't way to get this car running again.
Carnage:
It feels like Christmas with all the parts that have been arriving. I think that feeling will end when I get the credit card bill though.
