Re: Need some motivation!

Knowing that you are the doctor that performed that surgerory is what makes it worth while. Knowing every square inch of your ride is good too. I like learning new things, you gotta learn something new. If not that then new problems arise, then you fix them.

Re: Need some motivation!

Thanks for the good words guys. Here is the plan:

I got a buddy coming over tomorrow about noon and we will be getting the old engine out. I figure i'll repay him later with a few drinks down at the bar while watching a kickass metal show.

I'll be blasting some Megadeth. That usually gets me pumped to rape and pillage and drive fast while taking lots of chances.

Dido. There's a station here called The Drive that plays all late 60s-early 80s. Very relaxing. There's also The Loop that plays 80s-new rock. Gets repetitive though. The Drive, I never hear the same song twice in one day.

And working with a Bud is always good. When I did the head one of my best friends was over and we just chilled and worked. He's a big guy so I used him for all the heavy work and stuck bolts. And compressing the hydrolic tensioner. No booze that day though.

I once learned that if you drink while wiring stuff up, you will more than likely be rewiring it the next day... Sober...

Stop shouting please!

Go here. http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...play.php?f=782
Then go to whichever car you have and click on that link. Then at the top lefthand corner of the forum screen you will see a button that says "New Thread."

Welcome to AF.

Press Prt Sct ( print screen ) on your keyboard its on top of Insert key, Then go Start -> all program -> accessories -> Paint -> Edit -> Past.

BTW make sure you save as JPEG type. much smaller and good quality.

Re: Need some motivation!

n00b

Anyways, I come bearing good news. I got my ass working on the Talon for 4 hours yesterday and 30 minutes today. The engine and transmission are completely out! I dropped the engine still on the cradle from underneath. Now this week will be disassembly and removal of parts I am going to re-use. Hopefully next weekend she'll be ready to drop in.
