Sean i just told the ol lady about your offer she didnt approve something about needing a bike as bad as I need another hole in the head.

 

I think I can make it next Friday, ill bring the bike down and tempt you with it.
You know you'll cave.

 

Give me a call before comming down, I am back working so it will depend on how work goes but I should have time to get the engine out friday evening.

 

I just found I have a "function" friday night with the mrs.

No more go, unless you push it back to saturday

 

Pictures or it didn't happen, n00dz will be fine.

I might be working on it still Saturday i will give you a call

 

And did she offer to put it there?

 

The look I got indicated she would like to put one in for me.

 

I would suggest wearing sunglasses all the time, that way you can pretend you cant see her glaring at you.

Its a win win

 

Status report. Was it a blown hg for sure or something equally greater or less of a pain in the ***?

 

At minimum its a head gasket, maximum its a dropped sleave. Either way the engine is coming out next weekend if I have time. If the sleave dropped more than 5thousanth the block is going to be NFG. Than means my pistons would be NFG and I would have to build a new short block, this time it will run stock sleeves if the block I have now is NFG.

 

Jesus. Sh!tty buisness this is, sorry to hear Gord. Lets hope its just a bhg. My buddy has a 2j with a hole in the block, we could jb weld it back together and wedge that thing in. KIDDING.

 

NFG = not F'ing good?

 

pretty much, NFG= No F'ing Good

 

red35 and I pulled the engine last night. We started at 6:30-7pm had it out by midnight and we even stopped for a pizza break. We had the bolts all bagged and tagged, shop clean, front end back on the car and tools put away by 2am. We are getting fast but like I said before I am not sure that is something to brag about.

Any ways thanks again to Dustin for coming down and giving up his Friday night again to work on my car. I might have to let him drive it ONCE when/if I ever get it running again. I hope to find time this week to get the heads off and have a look if there is any damage or sleeves dropped maybe I got lucky and just need a new Head gasket.

 

I always thought it was Naked French Girls. That's probably just me. Any news, Gord?
