ok guys, now i have power and internet back after 3 1/2 days of not having it because of that ------- storm that rolled through here over the weekend. i tell ya one thing, it was like the global blackout for southeast michigan. just a big pain in the ***.

anyways, i did score a 87' 13b for 50 bucks thanks to the so kindly heart(but still a terrorist) buk. has good apex seals all around. my research starts tonight if i can get my lazy *** off my newly modded 360. as of now i have the complete cpu harness that runs into the car, the motor partailly disassembled for a 12a front cover and new oilpan gasket that i still need to purchase, and the actual ecu for the motor. buk just picked up the maf sensor for me from the car since we didnt have enough time to grab it monday.

rotarygeek and kain are gonna be my best friends now for information besides rx7club.com. im hoping like hell i get this car back on the road by august for the dream cruise. lmk what you guys think. oh, and buk inst such an bothersome ------- that all claim he is, he's just a regular ol' ------ in Detroit.

nahh, only good thing about those motors are the crank in a 350 block. other than that, ive never liked them. ill try my chances one more time with the no piston engine....

and if it goes again ill consider the sbc swap.

okay, kain and rotarygeek, does a carbed 13b sound good to you guys? If I'm right I should be able to use my 12a ignition setup which was a 2nd gen coil pack setup with leading ignition only. I'll have to make a custom intake for it, but I think that is what I want to do. You like or no?
