After wheezing by on three cylinders for the past 2-3 weeks my good ol' junk yard motor finally belched out it's last bit of smoke on the way to Washburn tonight (What a plume it was).
I'll be driving the T-bird beater that my grandma blessed me with a couple weeks ago. It's a blessing, but it will be living Hell driving this thing until the Talon is running again. BTW - I ordered .020 over Forged pistons for the engine rebuild today. The machine shop says it will probably be 4 weeks before he is done since he is so busy. That means I'll be pushing the Sept. 21st dead line. I can just see it now, wrenching the Saturday night before trying to get the car ready for the big race. Why does it always have to come down this way?!

I definetly 2nd a wrench day...i need to fix my damn car! By the way, once again, if anyone has or can get a decent passanger side halfshaft for a relitivly decent price PLEASE let me know. Mine it on its last legs, and I cant afford to buy one new. And if anyone knows how to replace a 2nd gear syncro I would love you forever as well. And replace shift linkage. Damn, my list is way too long. Rest assured, the loving will be spread all over if the car can be fixed sometime soon. I wanna dust Hondas on the 21st dammit!
