    It was late and I matched them up thinking they were the same diameter, then looked at the clutch pads and went, oh. ha.

    I worded it wierd, I should say "like we want".

      Ohhhh hahaha. I was wondering how your expectations wwerent even close to reality regarding the flywheel.

      You are really moving along man. Awesome progress.

                I love the piney tasting finish.. Reminds me of the Pacific Northwest.

                Too bad I get off work an hour after laurelwood actually closes.. It's called "northwood" now but I live maybe 3 minutes from their battle ground location.

                  Popped over to my friends place, had a BBQ/Shrimp boil and got down on some minor car work!

                  The flywheel is off getting bead blasted and resurfaced, and I'm busy making sure the little parts are in check.


                  AKG, Condor, Ireland engineering, Garagistic, G-man, Revshift are All making an appearance in this swap.

                  You didnt need much light to see the awesome cross hatching this motor still holds, its nearly excessive.. ha! Everything looks good!

                  Small leak from crank sensor mount, and crank seal getting replaced after we get a seal puller.

                  This will be possibly bead blasted and resprayed.. atleast resprayed, I as hoping for a matching delphin metallic, maybe darker.

                            Cost me $55, and hes in Hazeldel. that was for bead blast and resurface... I think just a resurface is $35

                            Dowit!

                                sorry for the quick foggy pics, we got my early model in and made super quick work of the suspension.

                                Finally dug around enough and found a place in the floor board where i could jam a flat head through the rust, also a small area where the battery will no longer sit inthe engine back, and one more spot by by the windshield. all this was minor.. nothing excessively rotted or anything to be bummed out about.

                                1.Strip and respray some of undercarriage
                                2. make it a roller on monday with all the cool parts :)
