2458, its time to say good bye!
Posted by MWC, May-27-01 05:23 AM
I am not one to write long post, so this will be no differant.
It is time to move on and travel down a differant road.
No I am not buying another import, or domestic car. In fact I am buying a crotch racket.
As some of you guy's know already (cuase you were there) I blew my motor again on the dyno yeaterday.
I am at a lost as to why, but have lost my desire to go foward. The first motor caused me to miss this season, and now this one will cost me the DSM shootout. I have already reserved "some" goodies from my car for those who were there at the time to share my darkest hour, but I will have more for sale within the next weeks. Please no questions as to why my motor blew, Cause I dont know! Good luck to all you guy's and enjoy your rides as they seem to be a dying breed. Keep the 420A spirit and dream alive. I tried but could not seem to hang in there.
SEE YA!!!!!!!!!!MWC

Yea Brian that was me!
I am sure you will hear all about it as well as see the Video. I do have RC 440's and will sell those plus trade for stock ones. They are only 6 months old, if that. No clutch I am an Auto. Sorry. :(
The car is still at Lugo Performance an will be towed this week back to Miami. Since we are talking injectors and they are small shipping them will not be a problem. Hit me up with an offer and we can talk.
SEE YA!!!!!!!!!MWC

But anyways once i get this rolling i am going to run 15lbs of boost. also what type of clutch do you recommend. let me know any info will help and thanks for your time bro.

Well, I was going to show up for your Dyno, I had alcohol poisioning and couldnt make it. Im glad I didnt show for that one though, I'd feel your pain... I know what you've been through on your dsm.

Why is it that these Truboed 420a's seem to blew a lot?
This is why I keep mine non-turbo.

Man, I know it sucks and all, but u had a bad ass car. U could keep it and change things. Maybe drop the boost some? Build the motor stronger. I'm not trying to blow eerybody's chances at getting your parts, but damn, I know as well as u do. I came to u for a lot of answers on things. Shit, I got my front b/c I saw good angles from your pics. You reallyshould take time to think b4 u make te major decision. It's kinda like breaking up with a girl u were with a long time. Just think dawg.
