here's how it started:


the next block going in. also, spare z6 that needs rebuild.

supervisors came out to check on us:

found a place to store some tools

julio showed me where the oil line is supposed to return.

it's worse on the other side, ruining the oil pan.

peek-a-boo

damn track cleaning crew kept the parts i left on the track.


remove the axles? no way.

the sleeves held the 20 psi, but the rod and piston didn't.

which way does the arrow go?

"one of these things is not like the other"

ghetto was the hero this weekend.

julio replacing that useless tbird exhaust housing.

donald hooking up the stealthmode oil line kit. cough*shameless plug*cough

renr searching for the right tool

Ya, I am missing a few things. Not much, but I need to make a list. I also found some tools that are not mine; will bring them Saturday. I'll take a pic tomorrow so everyone can subtract from what they're missing.
