The car is going in tomorrow and they are starting Wednesday and should be done end of the day Thursday but I am planning to pick it up Friday just in case they need some extra time as I will be out of town for work this week anyway.

Remember the oil leak I mentioned back several weeks ago? Well I want it fixed and if the head is coming off I am upgrading the dumb mitsu chain that stretches. Also I don't want to reuse standard ARP's a 3rd time so I am getting some new headstuds and obviously a new headgasket is a good idea so that is going in as well.

When I said my car should have no problems I meant it and I knew I had this problem. The problem wasn't going to magically fix itself. The car runs/drives perfectly fine right now, I just don't want a stupid oil leak that is getting worse on the car, it makes a big mess and I don't want to end up driving on low oil for any reason. I want the car running perfect and sadly I need to pull the head to fix this problem but it is what it is.

It's getting close to being 100%...
