I am going to try to pull the engine from the Metropolitan Sunday. If you have nothing better to do, feel free to stop by and help. Should be starting around 9:30.

What are you going to do with the Met's engine? Make a leaf blower out of it?

If I can clearly identify it, I should be able to sell it.Quote:

Sorry, I can't make it either. We went and watched Texas A&M beat Baylor today (Whoop!). I will have too much to do around the house tomorrow. Sorry!
I would but we are having some friends over tomorrow for a pre turkey day party. My wife would kill me if I left her alone with all the preperation.
I'd offer to come help, but I still can't lift (or push) with either arm, so I'm even more useless than usual...
Stupid jrj512 scheduled an Autocross on the same day as your engine removal.... :(
I'll try to make it if you will promise to PM me if you decide to cancel.
I have to wash my hair.
I fail to see the difference. :confused:Quote:
