The low pressure port is, if I am not mistaken, located on the top of the compressor itself. It's kinda' tricky to find at first because the cap is black. Just get a flashlight and dive on in with your arm. Get friendly with your galant. Here's a general idea for where it's located on top of...

I haven't' been able to put a wrench at it at all yet, the soonest I'll be able to start pulling things apart will be this Labor Day weekend. Been working lots of overtime to gain funds for the rebuild process and now my Senior college semester is about to start.As you can see, I'm going...

I'll probably be getting in touch with you, toybreaker, shortly. Thanks for the shout out and call to arms.I got in contact with that guy just the other day and I'm getting deals worked through. Thanks for the pointers, thomcasey.Depending on what I work out with that partout in Amherst I...

Sadly no other vehicles were really around at the time. There was another semi cruising along in the right lane, but, he kept on truckin'. This was far enough out in the middle of nowhere that there really weren't any cameras around, and furthermore in the list of bad news, I wasn't able to...

Looking for a number of front end parts. Prefered to all be summit white, unless otherwise notated. _________________ Front end:Hood -- Carbon fiber replacements would be ok too. Front grill Front bumper: With or without plastic grill parts intact. Front bumper bar Front bumper top plate...

So, long after the rebuild process and the year or so of work put into the car, 1721 was up and running on a subtle 15lbs and being used as a daily. It served fairly well for nearly two and a half years and caused its fair share of mayhem...There were a number of upgrades and TLC items on the...

Well, the time sort of came and went, the first start went massively undoccumented for a few reasons. The main reason of all being that I couldn't feel my arms. In an entirely unrelated note, don't drain 10 gallons of fuel from your car in 40 degree weather with a breeze as that fuel really...

Great guy, as stated by all others, he was fast to communicate and plenty patient through the whole process! Looking forwards to doing business in the future!

Ahahahahaha, labor day. What a quaint goal.It was only earlier tonight that the car was lowered off a jack and pushed out of the garage to the driveway once again. Finally in the *Actual* home stretch.Pictures fell low on the priority list as I snapped, sheared, burned, sliced, and...

Well, things will be picking up this saturday. (9/5/2015) as I will officially have my engine back form the shop and I'll actually be home to assemble this thing for once. Sadly didn't get to finish it before going into the higher education system...but, hey, trust me.... I'm learning how to...

So, still not dead. Just been a bit busy and have had some delays on things. My bank account is soon to be shorted about $1k in engine parts. I did end up getting the block into a shop and its going to be tanked, decked, bored, and all that good stuff. Then I'm slapping in some new weisco...

It's a mix of delirium, psychosis, and probably brain damage (As a result of all that good head-to-hood action. Boom chicka ow-ow.)Right now its at a bit of a stall as I try to figure out a deal. Seeing if I can get the engine taken in, machined, possibly squared/honed, have valve guides...

Haven't died... but have learned quite a bit over the last few days.First lesson: The last owner of this car was a firm believer in zipties. I'm half surprised the timing belt wasn't made of zipties. Second lesson: Punching the engine in the process of breaking free bolts is a painful...

Whelp.... its on jackstands for the first time while in my possession. Wow it's cramped under here. Now is a really bad time to develop claustrophobia.And now I have some good news. We're on the final stretch.That came off after a few minutes of whispering sweet nothings into...

Now that looks like an interesting tool to say the least. Quite the impressive assembly for sure. Sadly mine is pretty well torqued down and I only managed to loosen the 1 bolt I could get a reasonable angle on. The rest just tried to get me to slit my wrist on whatever sharp things I could...
