I just finished putting that motor
that I built for Steve into my car. It rules! It has so much torque.
This is the first time that I have ever been able to truly peel
out in my car.
Installing this thing was a tight
fit. It would barely fit, and I had to take most of exterior stuff
off of the motor to get in in without having to cut any of my car's
sheet metal. The front piece of tin was a pain too. I cut the heck
out of my hands trying to get that thing to fit right.
The only problem with the motor
was that it leaked oil pretty badly. Fortunately , I was able to
track the leak down to a tiny pinhole in one of the pushrod tubes.
I switched it out and it is good as new now. What a difference that
motor makes. I can't wait to finish the one for my buggy!
