The past few days have been absolutely terrible for going out and working on the car. If anyone has been paying attention to the national news it has just been one round of severe weather after another so I haven't been able to do too much, but the time I've had to out has been productive. One CV shaft is disconnected, another is giving us lots of troubles that we'll just deal with once it is out of the car, we haven't even touched the rear prop shaft yet. The emissions control...

Today was my first full day available to mess with the engine and prep the engine pay for accepting it. The biggest issue I ran into was with the Air Conditioning.

It was like listening to a porno while putting in wrenchtime, I really don't think they realized their windows were open. Haha oh well, made the wrenching that much... Read More
Where the Talon AWD drivetrain swap stands now; Engine and transmission still not ordered, waiting on funds. I'm focusing instead of pulling out the old to make way for the new. So far the Oil is drained. The transmission drained itself so I don't have to worry about that. The air intake system is removed, leaving only the turbo outlet and intercooler in place. Within the week I hope to have all the fluids removed so I can start pulling the engine and transmissio... Read More
