hehehe its dirty as hell. Going to the bathroom there is a whole adventure on its own.

I did check the end play, I just didnt take pics of it.

On a side note, motor spins with one hand (no sparkplugs)

Good to see you here Ito :D

Did you make this (oil baffle), it looks thicker and better made than the one RB sells?

-xlr8planet- 09-07-2011 10:02 AM

Yes I made it. It is thicker, but in no way its better made. The pic does not show it, but every edge looks like crap :D

Its 1/8" thick, I wanted it to be a baffle and at the same time, a reinforcement against flex.

On the outside of the pan, there´s an oil pan brace, of the same thickness.

Very sweet looking. Hope all your hard work pays off for you in the end!

-xlr8planet- 09-07-2011 08:54 PM

I will find out soon

http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/5...0920115563.jpg

a couple of wires, oil and antifreeze ... and it should be ready

93rx7r1 09-08-2011 08:38 PM

Hope it fires right up for you and purrs like a kitten!
