New motor and some progress!

Well this post makes me feel better, I'm still a noob and don't know many people but I do know OB did my 3L swap! And the car runs great!

Icy I do love the car I'm sure it'll really look good all cleaned up! I love the wheels and the hood i want!!:laugh:
I hope it looks a little better cleaned up than it does now!
 
Trey I don't know what happened but in all the ruckus your engine ended up in Tims car! :shrug:

my engine my wheels what else!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I guess if i happen to repo the wheels ill just get the car and all since it is attached and all right:crazy:
 
Yeah I've got to check my bro's camera b/c I can't seem to find the internal engine pics but my daughter might have had my cam & I grabbed my bro's or my dads. I've got everything back bolted down except the front cover & I've got to pull your engine & swap everything over to your new one.

I have no idea what a spec stage 1 is supposed to look like lol so does anyone see anything wrong with the clutch pp or flywheel? :help:
 
Only thing I noticed is that the clutch disc looks to be about 50% :shrug:
 
Maybe 300 in THAT car. :shrug: I have no idea what its suppose to look like either.
its hard to tell by the pics and I havent talked to Ob1 yet. I havent got a clue what a spec 1 looks like. i have only seen 2 spec 3's according to the fs add he said they only had 300 miles and they were installed brand new.:shrug:
 
Well, I shouldn't talk because after I bought my SVT in April of 06 the clutch was slipping by August :laugh: Now it wasn't that strong when I got it, but that was my first stick car, although I had driven other people's cars. When pole pulled it, it wasn't pretty :nonono: IDK how much longer that will last, but since you already know how to drive stick, it might last a little while
