yeah i dont know why Zach is so "worried" about keeping fluids in his engine. So what that their is oil leaking out of the back and coolant leaking out of the front. That is money that could be spent on stickers or double decker wings.. Oh well I guess he will learn one day.

Thank god my T2 swap didnt have any leaks or bad seals!

PM me if anyone is interested in the purchase of an 84 FB. Check the first gen for sale section. I'm hoping to sell this, buy another, and eventually swap.

Zach, if I come home and find the hubs missing off my 7, I will beat you with the barstool that you made it from.

BTW does anyone on here know how to free a stick coilover? My hks coilover perch wont freakin move! All of the other 3 are fully adjustable.

Yeah it is the top perch. I was able to free the lower perch (locking one) but the upper perch where the spring sits is seized up.

Also Jason I will be getting that throttle body from you this week, I just have been slammed moving into my new office.

PB Blaster will free up just about anything, when I had the 69 Ghia I went through about three can of the stuff freeing things up - just about every nut and bolt was frozen up with rust.
On FD news; the coolant leak the PO mentioned he had has resurfaced, but I have a rough idea where it is and I can hear it now. I'll have to pull the throttle bddy and the turbo intakes to get at it though. It's right in area above the turbos and exhaust manifold, what coolant line is over there I have no idea - heater core line maybe?
