So I got the entire intake and exhaust manifolds of today. It looks as if the first OMPline was not attatched to the front squirter on my GSL-SE. I think im going to find a burned up rotor.

I still have those two 13bs which I havent been able to look over to tell if they are S4 or S5s yet. I need a way to check those motors as they sit outside of a car. I hope to have a simple swap on my hands, however it is a 20 year old car so we shall see.

Teusday I hope to have the drivers side removed and the mounts undone. Me and a friend are going to attempt to lift the bare block out by hand and drop one of the other motors in.

Hopefully it will last long enough to get the turbo II motor rebuilt and prepped to drop.

the water pumps are different... are they long blocks or short blocks? (do they have all the crap on them?)

I havent got pics of the motors yet. Probably will go pick them up wednesday or friday.

They are long blocks, every accessory on both engines, plus what I have on the car already, so I have three complete sets. I will purchase an atkins rotary rebuild video shortly and start studying and taking notes.

Here are a few pics of my new baby, and my current daily driver. The hood shows just how bad it overheated.

I thought this was pretty funny



Oil Change instructions for Women:


1) Pull up to Jiffy Lube when the mileage reaches 3000 miles
since the last oil change.
2) Drink a cup of coffee.
3) 15 minutes later, write a check and leave with a properly
maintained vehicle.
Money spent:
Oil Change $20.00
Coffee $1.00
Total $21.00
================================================== ======

Oil Change instructions for Men:


1) Wait until Saturday, drive to auto parts store and buy a case
of oil, filter, kitty litter, hand cleaner and a scented tree,
write a check for $50.00.
2) Stop by 7 - 11 and buy a case of beer, write a check for $20,
drive home.
3) Open a beer and drink it.
4) Jack car up. Spend 30 minutes looking for jack stands.
5) Find jack stands under kid's pedal car.
6) In frustration, open another beer and drink it.
7) Place drain pan under engine.
8) Look for 9/16 box end wrench.
9) Give up and use crescent wrench.
10) Unscrew drain plug.
11) Drop drain plug in pan of hot oil: splash hot oil on you in

12) Crawl out from under car to wipe hot oil off of face and
arms. Throw kitty litter on spilled oil.
13) Have another beer while watching oil drain.
14) Spend 30 minutes looking for oil filter wrench.
15) Give up; crawl under car and hammer a screwdriver through
oil filter and twist off.
16) Crawl out from under car with dripping oil filter splashing oil
everywhere from holes. Cleverly hide old oil filter among trash
in trash can to avoid environmental penalties. Drink a beer.
17) Buddy shows up; finish case of beer with him. Decide to
finish oil change tomorrow so you can go see his new garage door
opener.
18) Sunday: Skip church because "I gotta finish the oil change."
Drag pan full of old oil out from underneath car. Cleverly dump
oil in hole in back yard instead of taking it back to Kragen to

26) Remember that the used oil is buried in a hole in the back
yard, along with drain plug.
27) Drink beer.
28) Shovel out hole and sift oily mud for drain plug. Re-shovel
oily dirt into hole. Steal sand from kids sandbox to cleverly
cover oily patch of ground and avoid environmental penalties.
Wash drain plug in lawnmower gas.
29) Discover that first quart of fresh oil is now on the floor.
Throw kitty litter on oil spill.
30) Drink beer.
31) Crawl under car getting kitty litter into eyes. Wipe eyes
with oily rag used to clean drain plug. Slip with stupid
crescent wrench tightening drain plug and bang knuckles on frame.
32) Bang head on floorboards in reaction to step 31.
33) Begin cussing fit.
34) Throw stupid crescent wrench.
35) Cuss for additional 10 minutes because wrench hit bowling
