    What's an m20 rebuild costing these days?
    Robello Racing quoted me ballpark $1500 to refresh the shortblock. (hone, rings, bearings, etc.)

            Went to rebuild the front calipers from the parts car and the fronts are gone. The pistons are pitted to hell. Decided just to trash both front calipers and get other ones to rebuild.

                    I don't want to be at work today. I just want to be working on this. There might even be a tear on first start.

                                there is no shame in admitting when you dont know what you are doing. even tho i hate that engine, doesnt mean i want to screw up something. i wont swap s50s for people either
