Pshttt it'll never be done there's still the teksid swap and so on 4 valve goodness or stay 2 valve ? So many choices lol

:thumbsup:

Maybeee lol My dad does wiring on the side and programs for a living so i was just browsing threw the almighty electronics book thinking 555 timers or capacitors I'd like to have variable adjustability with the modules mounted in the car for more gangsterness

Maybe I like the DIY parts maybe because I'm hard headed and stubborn? Maybe the young part still plays lol

Big ups to that man!

Welp doesnt even matter any more motors toast but the valve cover looks decent if only i didnt run low painting base and clear thought about an ls swap but have a teksid in the garage time will tell bank 1 was all 100 125 130 and 120 bank 2 was all low 60 and 90s so motors def got worn rings

Sucks to hear about the engine compression, that's nice that you've got a teksid block sitting there to build tho. Just make it faster and stronger than the current state!

Nice progress!! I like the game plan. - So how come your not using the fr500s? - I like the paint gun! Did you decide to repaint vs wrapping it?
