Well...

The 323's 3.0 swap project for this winter is now a definite go. Let's just say that I had a shifter issue down at VIR on Saturday.

Or find a different one.

?????

PS

No, you can't have my engine.

hydraulic lifters are t3h suck.

hopefully the SCCA will confirm the E36/E46 6-cyl to BSP move. Terry Baker has already offered me his motor - and he's figured out how to make every manifold work in a 323.

Ugh. He just built that. I guess he has no choice but to part it out now.

He said something about an S54.

If not, you've got a couple months to back your car into a tree. BTW, I'd be happy to perform an alignment if you need one.

The funny thing is that this probably wouldn't have happened with the wankermatic...
