63769, GET IN HERE SOCAL GUYS, swappin the motor and need some help.
Posted by turbo8u, Jan-18-04 03:49 PM
ok this only pertains to socal guys.... i started my rebuild yesterday but two days straight i havent had more than a 4 hour window at any given time. with stupid ass problems with the shop being packed with people to not having an air wrench to not having a ride and whatnot. i NEED some more help guys, the only day i have left to get this done is tuesday and would really appreciate the help. so dan (thedawg) erik (ez) chamuko or projectturbo or whoever see's this and isnt busy on TUESDAY this week, call me....my number is 949-295-2914. i wont be on a computer so i wont be able to check this thread. josiah (skrilla) is helpin me out so im pretty sure we'll pound it out if no one decides to help but i could really use it. i worked for about 3 hours today and started more or less from scratch and all thats left is to yank the motor. so basically what i need is someone to assemble the rest of my longblock while i yank the motor thats in it and clean it up and swap all the shit over. we can do this in NO TIME if there are about 3 2gnt gear heads turnin wrenches. i know you guys have done rebuilds before, so i know you know whats up...and this is my first one. anyway, this post is getting long, and im sure you got the point of why i posted this. i obviously could use some help, so call me up.

p.s- the shop isnt open on mondays for obvious reasons

eat me. if i would have actually HAD a day to work and not 4 hours i would have got it out for sure. besides, i also decided to pull it without pulling the tranny or axles so if you can imagine, its rough, but nonetheless...its getting taken care of.

p.s- ALL YOU SOCAL LAZY BASTARDS SUCK.


SKRILLA OWNS.

We can pull the motor in 1 day, the problem is the Bullshit with the Marine Base hobby shop and our 1 here, 2 hour there time we were there together.

It will be finished this week though fucker.

They have every fuckin tool you can think of, besides that there workers are fuckin idiots with no more intelligence than my butt hairs, especially this asshole who runs the place who we happily call the gimp, LOL what a idiot. I think he has all his attitude because of his walking condition, I couldn't walk for 2 years so I have NO pity for this fuckin guy and his aimless animosity, I'veeven tried to be ncie to him, whatever, fuck him.

By the way where the fuck are the other 2gntr's who were supposed to help?

Whatever

Always assistance is helpful but definitely not necessary

Josh's car should be pretty fucking sick check out this post in Kills section http://forums.2gnt.com/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=18&topic_id=6982&mode=full

haven't had a spare moment at all - freaking class projects/presentations own me. weekdays aren't good for any socal peeps IMO. if you guys are still not finished on the weekend, I can be there for sure.

Josh, by the time I was out of school on tuesday, it was 6:00, and I still have stuff I need to do. working 1/2 time plus 19 units = you understand

It's a 2 man 8 hour job, even if you haven't pulled this specific motor out. The first time my cousin and I pulled it and put the new one in, 8 hours with many smoke breaks and about 10 minutes to eat pizza at lunch.
