Nothing wrong here....just that Robb has been through alot in the last nine months and probably needs to vent his new found happiness So i dont want to spoil it for him...
I don't like the layout of that forum at all, so I don't even mess around with it.

That's good--I thought maybe you blew your motor too!

Thanks Alan, Robb gave me whiplash on the way home last night.

You'll hear from my lawyer soon.

Built motor from BR? Very nice! Is it cheaper to buy a motor from BR then it is to have the OEM motor built?

if you have access to a lift, drop the subframe, support the engine & trans & lift the car off the motor & trans. just take into account the CG will shift once the engine/trans is removed & set up the lift accordingly

So, you spent ~$4600 for a complete, built engine and you need to provide them with your OEM one?

How come there aren't any EVOs dominating the various brackets at the Q (Racelegal)? The quickest EVO I have heard of is owned by someone who did a very nice cameleon paint job on it and was making crazy power. I've talked to him a few times but don't remember his name. I know that he was winning quite a bit, but then upgraded his turbo and had traction issues.

Because Evos are made for the road course not drag :P. His name is Paulo and he makes 800whp or something. It's also his daily driver.
