Today being thanksgiving my oven was used for the first time in a long time. My house is now filled with chemical smoke from all the cleaner that my cousin sprayed in the oven months ago. Oh the holidays.
 
I got this stuff from a friend a long time ago called Spontaneous Combustion. I found it in the pantry when I was having chili. So I figure a few drops to try it out. Gawd it felt like my tongue had a lit match on it.
 
I think the non-Mivec 3.8 SOHC motor in my wife's Endeavor shares almost all parts with the Mivec motor in Eclipse's and Galant Ralliart. I'm gonna try to fit these parts on my non-Mivec grocery grabber:

Upper intake manifold - aluminum on Mivec, plastic on mine
Front valve cover - bright red w/raised logos on Mivec, plain plastic on mine
Center engine cover - covers wires on Mivec, not present on mine

Boo.
