This thread isn't about beer tap shift knobs? I must be in the wrong thread... 0.o
Anyway, condor speed shop motor and trans mounts ordered, AKG subframe reinforcements ordered, and my new hydro will be getting ordered tonight. I love pay days. So much. Hopefully getting the m50 head to the machine shop down the street to get it decked for my mls headgasket and it's good to go on! Finally!

Hahaha works for me. I don't care about the off-topicness, it keeps it interesting. Besides, this thread was made for me to dump pics of the car/motor as it came along. The few who have been following know what's going on lol.

Trade you a couple beers for my old hydro if youre still insterested? Lol. Or you can buy it for cheap, I dont care. Cheap as in like, $30 and a high-five.
Some updates for tonight..
MY MLS HEADGASKET FINALLY FUCKING CAME!!! Words cannot describe how happy I was to see this when I got home from work today. Holy shit. I get excited just looking at this picture.
I also painted my bay tonight. If this were a show car, I would have touched every single scratch and imperfection to make it perfect. But its not. At all. So I didnt care.
Self-etching primer layer 1
Self-etching primer layer 2
Semi-gloss black coat 1
Semi-gloss black coat 2
And finally, semi-gloss black coat 3 after its almost dried and with the core support on
Thats all. Time to get my head to the machine shop down the street ASAP!

You are worlds fastest post responder, I swear.
Also, my subframe support brackets came the other day. They ship from Illinois for those interested. They are going to be tough to weld in without pulling the subframe, so I need to figure out how Im going to do that. Its been a while since I welded upside down in a dark space, so we'll see.
