Default Revive dead AP1

Hello S2KI it has bin a long time since I have visited. My AP1 shot a spark plug out of the head years ago and it has bin sitting in my garage ever since. I finely have collected all the parts to do a full Brian Crower motor build. Going to buy a HALTECH programmer as well. My plan is to take my AP1 to Driving Ambition for the work. When I am ready to take it I need a little help loading it on a trailer to transport it to the shop and was hoping for a S2KI escort too.

Much planing must be done due to my wife repeatably backing into the garage door, it wont go up now. So i have to plan all this to happen with the repair of the garage as the car must be moved out for the repairs to happen. I will post more info as I get things set up.

So who is interested in helping me out and escorting me to Driving Ambition?

There's a recent review/feedback on this shop. Here's the link. It's at the very bottom. https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/897...servicesdeals/

Let me know a time, I may be able to round up a few of us to be there. I personally don't live anywhere near Galt and many of us would be coming from North or East of Driving Ambition so we may be able to meet you at DA instead of escorting on your trek North to R-C.
Shad is a top notch mechanic and DA has quite a reputation here. You will be in good hands.

Feel free to post or PM me details and I will see what I can do.

Ok so a little up date. I ordered a Mishimoto RAD and radiator Hose Kit. Just revived my new Hasport motor mounts (street).
I am in a debate weather or not to buy/upgrade the crank rods to the BC sportsman rods. Is it a waist of cash or is it future proofing the motor? As a FYI I have bought every thing BC top end and CP pistons 11.8:1 +.20 over bore. the crank and rods only have 36,000 miles.

I just want to make sure I have every thing I need before the rebuild.
