Title: Picked the heads up yesterday....
Post by: vinnietbird on January 19, 2008, 07:00:24 AM
I picked up my E7's from the machine shop yesterday.It's a set of E7's I pulled from a truck.Rick (the owner) did an awesome port job and also did a 3 angle valve job,new springs,and sliiiiiiightly milled.I hope to have them and the E303 on around the first week of February (hopefully the 4th).We're also talking about installing my electric fan that day as well.THEN,I can focus on finishing the bodywork and getting paint on the Sport.Light is at the end of the tunnel.

No way.I'm not having the underside painted.It's all clean and factory like under there,no rust,tight.I'll leave it alone.I drive this car.....a lot,so,I just want clean and functional under there.

Have you considered at least undercoating?

Why undercoating/The car is 20 years old,not a speck of rust.We don't have rusty cars here.It would be pointless for me.I am installing sound deadener all through the trunk and interior though.

The best undercoating I ever got was a rear main seal leak.
