Sweet. My 82' Vette is an LS1(x) conversion with T56. Don't know what you plan on doing for wire harness, but if you want something super clean and minimized I recommend Speed Scene Wiring in TX.

Well, the vette will be done in a couple of weeks. So that's one. I will build a front splinter and then set up the suspension. Lots of changes there so it will take a while.
I have the procharger sitting in the garage for the stang. I actually have a lot of parts sitting waiting to get installed.
Finally, I got some shop space and buy in from some of my guys to try and finish the lemons car. Got to coordinate the pick up.
Should make for a fun summer.

About 6 months ago I realized my intake manifold was leaking. About 4 months ago I searched for intake manifold gaskets. Last month I ordered one. Two weeks ago I bought some high temp silicone. Last week I almost... Almost changed it out. But no.

I've lost three engines in the last six months. First the Devil Aveo, then both Mazdas for different reasons. Signed over the Devil Aveo for labor trade to do engine swap on Protege, and it runs now. Next up is the Miata and I'll have to figure out what I'm going to do with it then, since we also (had to) buy a new car; the xD, which is a great little car. Also the one buck truck started being a little bitch with fuel pump issues and I'm tired of it's leaky intake, so that's on the docket as well. So I have plenty of car shit going on since last august, just not a goddamn bit of it any fun.
Some of the older gents at work have bought some new cars, one a loaded Camaro, another a loaded Challenger (which honestly is my favorite looking) and our head of IT a brand new M5, which is pretty nasty all wrapped up in some refined packaging.
Oh, and the earthquake knocked down my wall which I had to rebuild and I'm dealing with the VA on behalf of my father; /shudders.
Pretty sure I must have been some kind of asshole in my previous life . . .

Your car broke down, but you have more than one car.
Your wall fell down, but you own your own home.
There's always problems in life, but you have a good life and you're a sexy bitch to boot. Now get out there and yank that Miata motor like yesterday. Unplug the harness, lay it over the fender, yanky yanky, swappy swappy, torquey torquey
