You have never even pulled a motor out before but seem to think you can rebuild a motor? I would have never thought you would try to rebuild the motor considering you called swapping one out complete.


Jet, what are you majoring in? I graduated there the end of summer 07 with Accouting and Business majors.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.

Not quite sure what you're getting at there James. I am getting help, and it's not like it could possibly be that difficult. I've just never done it before. The only opportunity they gave us at school with rebuilding engines and whatnot was a bunch of shitty, trashed, parts missing engines that were on hoists and all the bolts were stripped. I know I could do it on my own if I had the tools and the time, but with someone helping that's done this before, maybe I can learn something while I'm at it and not fuck it up. Plus rebuilding it is a better idea to me since it'll last longer and with a used engine you never know what you're getting, warranty or not.
