honestly you always says your doing something but never do...

I mean if you have it done elsewhere then go ahead but, not having the knowhow Id keep it stock

quote from Josh: He does not have the know how or the mechanical skills or patience to do a stroked motor. He will say he is doing it but wont ever see results.

riiiiiight. once again you are the LAST person that should be calling anyone out on here. IIRC you were supposed to have a swap car built by now? IIRC you were supposed to move out of your parents house (at the age of 22) by now so they would quit taking the car THEY bought for you (and still own, hold over your head etc) and holding it over your head like a chew toy for a dog???

i cant f'in stand you or watson, but you are no one to talk down to anyone about goals. and that quote from josh applies to ALL of you actually. If josh didnt have his dad fixing his car, he simply wouldnt have a car. ive heard far to many stories about the random BS you do to fix your car. and watsons experience is always well documented on here, im just glad he finally is having someone else build something for him, maybe this time it will stay on the road longer than a month.

Update!

Sooo, today I picked up a new block with internals(thank you joe) and the motor is completely apart head is going into a machine shop tomorrow and the block is going to be taken to PMR to have a once over and plan out what to do in-terms of what needs to be replaced and the stoker set up.

The plan today was to clean up the engine bay and have it sparkling white but it was Way to fucking cold out side.

So tomorrow should be very informative!

Good man. Keep us updated. I always wanted to see how the trannys and such worked on an IX... have yet to really ride in one either.

I love browsing engine builds. Reminds me how much I neglect mine in the garage! Stupid 18 degrees outside.
