    Default The engine is here!!!

    Well the engine for the Miata is here! I was told that it would take a week and it only took 3 days! I havent even ordered the seals from MMS yet. If I buy seal today after work does anyone want to work on this tomorrow?

    Sorry about all the drool in your engine bay... It was all from Molly, I swear!

    I rode over to Brad's to get your intake-side intercooler pipe welded. We got back, and Gary was laughing about having to go out of town and a certain someone we know who would be climbing the walls waiting for his car...

    Have fun at Hallet! I'll probably drop by in the morning to offer some (im)moral support.

    Well, Nobody in town stocks the oil feed tube gasket, so I guess I will have to put the order in with MazdaMotorsports and we can reload for next weekend. Unless somebody knows where I can get one. It is the gasket that goes between the oil pump and the oil pickup tube...

    I thought about going over there last night and liberating it from his garage, but I came to my senses and found the patience needed to wait.... another 4 hrs by my watch!

    And if that doesn't work, try a little WD40.

    Probably the longest 4 hours of your life... bean and I may get together for some grub somewhere (with wives in tow). Any interest in joining us?
