I think I've done this too many times now. The timing belt stuff used to scare me; now its the easiest part of putting the engine back together. I literally bolted all the timing pieces on, set the belt, aligned everything, and got it set in 15 min. Now, if only I was as fast at all the other crap....... Oh well, I'm way ahead of where I had hoped to be, so it very well could be running this weekend barring any major problems.

I've been without internet for the last 5 days or so. So I took notice that no one touch my Texas Chapter comment in #1978....
No we were just ignoring the guy from out east where the states are itty bitty... Texas is bigger than many of the chapter states out east totaled up, hell, TX is twice the size of NY, NJ and ALL of New England combined! Try and lump someone from Maine in the same group with a guy from Jersey.
As for chapters comprised of cities... what about Chicago 3S... a chapter made up of a single metropolitan area?

unfortunatly I feel the same way about, timing belts, clutches and now rear turbo's. I'm not saying that's a good thing.

Haha, yep. Timing belt - easy
Clutch (on an n/a) - easy but annoying.
Rear turbo - uhhhhh, a what? You know I think I saw one of those on existenz' car...... that damn thing made it very hard for me to get to the rear motor mount!

Anywho, its funny how you really miss the internet for like the first 48 hours or so, and then realize there is other shit to do in life. Don't get me wrong, I missed the internet the whole time, but only the gaming aspect. Although I'm sure i'd have missed it even more if I needed a car question answered...
So youre saying you didnt miss my awesomeness? cause id did miss you Butch!
