use it as a boat anchor or something...I don't care. I just started it up right before pulling it to clear out the antifreeze..and it does run. It has the crappy flat tops on it that I'll toss with it...and I have some old 240Z SU's I'll toss in that has recently been rebuilt for another $100 over the best offer I can get...


So you might literally get the whole package for $100+2 cases of Corona lights. hint hint.

The engine has what looks like a leaking main crankshaft seal that I don't feel like cleaning up and replacing..since I have two other engine to play with that has low miles. This engines odo says about...76,189 and looks stock. And E88 head might be worth something to someone??...hermmmm...maybe I might part it out....hehe...but I'm lazy.

So why not declare a Pick n Pay weekend? Club members bring their own tools and cash and tear it apart for you while you supervise and decree prices for parts that come off it?

Good way to meet some of the people who you talk to on this site, and you don't even get dirty hands.


:D

Isn't the 260 E-88 head a good choice, bigger valves, not shure of all the priliminaries, but a good item to grab???

YES YOU ARE! :x

Tell work you have a National EmergenZ and are required to save the Free World. (or something).

Bring K and one of your cars and chill out with us. It's a picnic/BBQ ~ something I know you're VERY good at ! Even if you only stay awhile, both of you will enjoy it.

Tell her that's PERFECT ~ Greenwich and Darien are so close you can do both in the same afternoon. In fact, you could do Greenwich FIRST, then bring us something Japanese to stirfry on the grille!

Subarus are completely acceptable, as long as they get you to the picnic.
