    I started on Wednesday last week and I'm finishing it up today. It took 5 days total. It's getting a new windshield today and after that it's just a few little things left to put back on and then it'll be done.

      Recommendation for a machine shop to deal with this single mass M20 flywheel in West LA area? I hit up Vellios since they are close and were recommended, but he didnt seem so sure when I asked about lightening the flywheel.

              Call englers brothers machine shop in SM. I know they resurface flywheels and do cylinder heads. They may do it

                  Definitely a mission and likely more money than I want to spend.

                        Drove up to bellflower for a fender that wasn't in such hot shape and now i regret it lmao. At least I know my old girl can handle the miles without missing a beat.

                          no worries brother, thanks for axing. I had to run to Lawndale after work so I said fuck it and dropped it off. I showed it to him and asked him about "taking some fat off" and he said no problem. I will update everyone when I get it. He said it might be ready tomorrow

                            I had gotten stuck at home taking care of things. Didn't make it out of the house until 5, stopped at Vons on the way, and made it to the beach before 6. You may have seen someone else.

                            I'm glad to took the flywheel to Vellios, sometimes it depends on which guy you talk to. I've had that happen, one guy would give my funny looks, but the old skinny guy understood. He even obliged when I asked him for a student discount.

                                I dont know who I talked to on the phone, but he had quoted me like $175 to lighten, resurface and balance it, but when I went there I talked to Norm (who is who I think youre talking about) and he said $100 for everything. I handed him a benji and he told me it will be done in a day or two

                                As far as seeing you, it was ~noon in the South Bay on 405 South. It was a faded bronzit ES/IS and lowered, so I thought for sure it was you. I was on 405 North
