I believe that's what did my turbo in, that k n that was on there for 30-40k. Certainly didn't help.

What's up guys? Been a bit. I've been reading but not posting. Getting white ready for the big thrash this weekend. I hope we can get it all done!

Axle swap, stick swap, and radiator button up.

That should be doable. Who all do you have coming to help? Wish I could make it, but I'm up to my elbows in drywall compound this weekend.

Not a fun way to spend a weekend. I'm taking an 8 hour practice exam tomorrow, real thing on Friday.

Yeah they're Clifford's old ones. This test is to see if I can solve some of the running issues I was having.

Idk Brian, you won't be here to harass us. Pry shoot the bull some I'm sure. Lol.

I'll say it again. Hiring the finish work out at my place was the best thing I could've done. 3 days and it was sanded for me...money well spent. But I do know you'll be enjoying those shiny new appliances!

Awe, it wan't too bad. Spent all day over there yesterday and got a lot done. If I could spend bigger chunks of time on it more often, it would be done a lot quicker.

Maybe I missed it, but what's the exam?

Not exactly, but they have been helping out some. I want them to help with what they can. It's important for them to learn a good work ethic and I think it will make them appreciate it a lot more to have helped build their own house.

Hope the bash is going well at Thomas' place. I look forward to hearing about the results.
