Damn, that sucks about the old parts.

Ugh, that's horrible.
Sorry dude, time to drink our sorrows away?

[A//// Guy]

Currently drinking the sorrow away, we should drink together soon brotato haha.

Getting excited to get it back on the road though, couple months and it will be already a year sitting in the garage, weird.

^Same for me with the BMW, a few more months = 2 years for the DSM.

That sucks, but I'm guessing you bought it with a worst case scenario in mind price-wise. Should be a lot of fun when it's done though.

Spending the coin! Should be awesome when its back together.

Yea it was bought knowing the engine could be 80-90% toast, was just hoping to get lucky haha. Didnt think it would need a new clutch being only 13k miles old. I talked to Monster and they said their C7 twin disk they pulled off a high HP car with 40k miles and still looked great. So that is promising.

Picture update. Shortblock is being assembled after they finally received all the parts, rotating assembly was balanced and the old crank was polished.

Twin Disk C7 clutch arrives tomorrow.

Nice.

Glad to see progress is being made! I'm sure you'll love the C7 twin-disc. Did you go with the OEM flywheel, or the lightweight aftermarket?
