Last minute rush

Post by Outback bloke » Tue Oct 04, 2005 9:28 pm

Nothing like having dramas to keep some one on their toes. Both Subaman
and I thought things were rolling along too easily this year so to
liven things up he destroyed his clutch last weekend and I destroyed a
motor. I have got a 2.5 sitting on the bench with pistons in and ready
for heads to go on tomorrow. I took the old motor out tonight ready to
pilfer the last few vital bits for the new motor. If all goes to plan
the new one will be sitting in the engine bay by this time tomorrow
night. That way we can pull the motor out of Subamans car the following
night to put a new clutch in it the night after that.

I hope all goes to plan as smoothly as your hoping cause it would be pretty ironic if in all of our planning, neither of us have a subaru working and therefore won't be allowed on our own cruise!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
