Good news folks, I FINALLY get my car back tomorrow. It was nearly finished today but didn't quite get the last few things done on it. So tomorrow evening I'm gunna go get it after I've gotten some sleep during the day for once. In a scramble to find MT-90 fluid I lost about 4 hours of sleep today leaving me with about 3 to come and work 2 shifts tonight. I went to 3 different stores b4 I FINALLY found the MT-90. Worth every penny and worth every second looking tho, so I'm told lol. The car should be done around noon but ya I'd rather sleep so I can go out friday night. So the bearing I blew...........OUCH..........it isn't pretty and I'm gunna try and get it from him so I can take pictures of it. There is 4-5 gashes in it on the 1 side progressively getting smaller. This explains the metal shaving that was found by the tech that has been working on my car. So that's that, all the bearings and seals were replaced and everything should be good to go tomorrow.
Glad to hear your back on the road. I wonder what caused that bearing to go........
How did the rest of your tranny fluid look? was it dirty? contamination will kill bearings pretty quick... speaking of which... i should change my tranny fluid right away here......
 
SSSOOOOOOOO..... it finally came in!!!!!!!!
CHECK YOURSELF BEFORE YOU WRECK YOURSELF FOOOOO!!!!!!!

I couldnt help it.... I was just feeling the love..... that's all... just feeling the love...
I just need to purchase some bolts.... and some gaskets and im off to the races.

I wasnt expecting this till at least monday.... it's like a week early.
 
He didnt include the old botls or the old gaskets.... not a big thing but a chicken wing on a string duder!
I could steal some from the shop but i wanna get some nice stainless steel ones.... i'll fix the high flow cat while im back there and then it's go time.
man i freaking excited.
I want to coat the header plust the cat with that high temp paint stuff.......
Whadda you guy's think.... should i keep my magnaflow cat or buy a new one?
 
mafterburner will be prettywell exactly the same as my safc (check to make sure it's compatable with MAP tho before you buy it)
The smt-6 has the added bonus that it can adjust timing slightly and it will install into the engin compartment for easyer installation.
 
My gawd I can't wait to get into the drivers seat of my car again.
 
Yeah, it's like having sex with a moose.
You take it for granted and then it's gone and you miss it soooooo much.... but then it's back!!!!!
YAY!!!!!
