    now alot of u are wondering y well lets just say the registration is out so its sitting for at least 5 months lol

    but ya im pico and his friend coco are gona come over in a week or 2 and check the compression on the motor and see what its like if it needs to be rebuilt im gona go to the jy and get a a20a3 bock and head and rebuild the bottom end and get the head worked a little also gona be getting the exhaust done proly gona be spending somewhere arnd 100 to 1500 for the rebuild so im open to suggestions on what i should get im thinking ne pistons rings and so on then getting the head p&p and get a delta cam then ill also have the adj cam gear and so on but i havent really thought about what to do with the exhaust i was thinking going with a full pacesetter setup but im not sure like i said comments and suggestions are welcome

    look at pico....he has spent a lil bit more than 700 bucks...my goal is to do an obd1 swap sooner or later. so i can use a stock engine but just have it tuned right so it does not blow up.


    cali junkyard charge alot of money....i still remember the day i had to spend 68 bucks....max i have ever spent for a starter, power stering pump, armrest....and that was when it was 50% off...not to mention you have to pull the engine your self. and tow it out.
