no..i'd feel guilty for selling someone a car like that. i guess im just gonna run it till it blows then throw an LS1 in or something..
I really cant let selling someone a messed up motor resting on my conscience thats why..

seems like i dodged a bullet tho, motor isnt making weird noises right now, no smoke either. revving up fine too.

haha to be perfectly honest, i teared a little when the car finally came back to life again. it died for about 3 days...no electrical signals or anything. i just let the motor bake in the sun hoping it would steam out all the water. i love my car cant believe i even tried to sell it in the first place

Can anyone recommend a good flat place to data log some 3rd gear pulls? Went to what I thought was a perfect spot right off the highway going out to kapolei but there ended up being cops cruisin around...

I got some done anyway...

But any suggestions would be appreciated
