Yea, Mikey was quite suprised, must have been those BROAD LETTERS Russ put in that post, lol. Everythings cool, no ill feelings whatsoever, just felt bad I boogered up Dan's thread. I just hope I don't get any daily mail with broad letters in my mailbox, bills, junkmail, exct.

Congrats Dan. I'm convinced you can pull a motor and install a new one faster than I can write out my grocery shipping list...
Y'all better get along, or you both get noogies at RRE.

In a headlock it is
. Never mind, Ed's going to be too busy helping out us wrenchers, no time for nugies. Lisa, I could tell you some stories on nugies and other punishment the teachers laid out on us kids when we went to school, I'll tell you all about it at RRE, you'd be amazed, wasn't even a parochial school either..

Little update:
Turbo has to come back out and remove the EBPV.
Turbo pedastal was leaking and I rebuilt it using one of those rebuild kits from Clay.
I honed the cylinder with a brake hone until the scoring was cleaned up.
Piston fit in there nice and snug.
Something went wrong with what I did and now it leaks worse than before.
I'm done messin' with it and it's getting replaced with a blank pedastal and gutted EBPV.
Other than that the engine so far is flawless.

Yes, I do.
I am going to miss it and if it turns out that I really need an exhaust brake, I will go buy a real one.
