Not yet brother got a little buzzed over AO’s house. On the way home I heard some crazy noise pulled over@ a gas station the motor mount broke a bolt and moved around 5 inches on the cavalier. Dropped it by Mr. Elisha around 10am. Haven’t had my Explorer EB inspection since 13 and the battery is dead. I just went back to bed.

Hopefully the cranks still good as Wade had said it has a bad rod. I could break it down in around 10-15 mins it’s just a short block. Let me send you a photo of my other new Toy for $100 brand new.

Felt a little better went out and got started. Snap on Ratchet broke on like the 3rd main cap so said I’ll go finish porting the intake well the spacer to match. The stick that the sand paper goes on breaks. Said the heck with everything today. Elisha must be doing alright as he’s not called. Must have gotten the broken motor mount bolt out. Drill & tap. Sometimes that’s just the way boo boo rolls. Down hill and I stepped in it. It’s all good gotta take the good with the bad.
