    Got another 4 bolt core coming in tomorrow so I'll be loading it directly onto my truck and dropping it off at the machine shop so hopefully I'll have it back up and running with a new motor in a couple weeks. I love that I just did a 60k, 13G turbos, and a new tranny like 1200 miles ago
    How the hell?
    Oil issue?

    Not really sure what went wrong, I'm assuming an oil issue. I was driving on the highway for 30 miles with the cruise on not even boosting or anything, then went to slow down and get off the highway and I hear the clatter of a spun bearing, oil light comes on, oil pressure starts to drop lower then normal and thats all she wrote. I shut her down but I did have to drive a block to get safely out of the way of traffic :/.

    Drove it to work, parked it and put the cover on. Went back out to check after my co-worker noticed the lights were left on. Damn it! My other two cars have automatic lights and I barely drive this one

    Should I switch the EGT and WBO2 gauge?

    666th post, ha.
    Looks good except for the WB. Buy a single pillar pod for the AEM then buy another 60mm gauge for the empty hole.

    Damn Dan sucks to hear you spun a bearing after all that work.

    I got my front coilovers in, went to do the rears but I can't find my damn wheel lock key. Also got the car setup on jack stands and ready to be torn down again. Who ever owned these coilovers before me must have had their car absolutely slammed, needless to say I am going to have to jack that bad boy up a good bit.

    2004 Ford F350 Lariat 6.0L
    1991 Stealth TT FWD
    1962 Volkswagen Beetle

    1973 Volkswagen Super Beetle
    1976 Jaguar XJ6
