Ahh, thank you too. That makes sense, wondered what that hard braking switch was for.

terry talk to terry about the focus shift tower and slick shift forks. thats all i can think of about updating inside the tranny. hell maybe have have him go through it and replace what needs to be replaced , then the tranny sort starts out at 0k mileage.....just a thought

well I've talked with terry a few times in the past and have been keeping up on FCO. Saw some recent posts from him saying the focus shift tower was old hat.

eitherway I got a bit more done this weekend and I'll post all that up later today.

but bad news and something that may stop this project for now. I have a crack in the engine..... sigh.

The crack shouldn't hold you up. You can still get everything else swapped over until you figure out what to do with the Crack. It shouldn't be to hard to fix.

time for 3L

ya well if a certain person didnt screw me out of an engine, this would've been discovered and corrected a long time ago.

no need to sugar coat this any longer, jrak I want my ****ing engine, I dont care what your ****ing excuse is because its been over 2 years now.

so ya, I think the car is going to more or less sit as I simply dont have the money to continue.
