It's an ok price for not having any information about it... $250 for the block but needs $2000 to replace scored liners and trim the deck I would guess, lol

Just found out someone in a 997 GT3 (and their passenger) died on Angeles Crest driving up to Newcombs Ranch for the Good Vibes Breakfast Club. I guess dude was a good driver but the speeds he was driving at left no room for error and being a cliff and all was all it took. Reminded me of our buddy with the swapped E30 who rolled his a few weeks back...

stay safe

Anyone in the SGV?

I can hardly tell who is who now bro. We use to know people all over the place, but with the popularity and the sleuth of newcomers into the scene, it's difficult to know where everyone is from or their names.

Look, I ended up getting a dash cap, left it exposed to the sun on over the dash with books and magazines on to weigh it down, so it would form correctly.
I haven't officially put it back on yet, but I'm going to use a layer of fabric under it and add some velcro squares as per installation recomended.
One of my other e30 buddies did just that and it looks great on his 84'. I was so impressed that I went ahead and bought into it. Wish me luck and I'll report once it's on all the way.

I’ve seen what looks like a flocked dash cap didn’t look bad . I think I’m just going to go with the vacuum formed restoration . It’s a 5 month wait and 1900$ yes I know it’s a lot but I feel that’s the only way it will be right . I just finished the rest of my interior and the dash cracked .

Anyone near Inglewood have a small compressor I can borrow AND/ OR a Leak Down Tester? I am trying to sell this motor and if I have to buy the tester I will but really dont have a use for a small compressor so Im hoping to avoid also buying that. If you have both, let me know your terms to borrow it and what it will cost me lol

Thanks
