Default Pics of the NE snow storm and update on the cavy PICS**

took some pics of the snow today and thought you guys might like to know whats up with the cavy















And here she is sleeping for a while. Im picking up the new motor thursday and it should be sent out shortly after. Also just bought a cf hood and are painting those stock wheels that are on there now black




You can't really see, but there is still a thin layer of oil covering the back of the trunk haha








Still need to get head studs, main studs, bearings, and do an oil pump conversion. Other than that, heres what i'll be working with. Weisco 9:1's, eagle rods, mls cometic headgasket, spec stg 4 clutch, ss valves, bronze valve guides, secret (h.o. and l.o) cams, ss brake lines, hawk pads, brembo slotted rotors, felpro gaskets

I don't know, it probably won't. But yes there is something I can put in once it blows. However money is kind of getting to be an issue so i'm only going to replace it when it breaks because it WILL break.

Took it to a machine shop and he told me it should be fine, just plastigauge the ---- outta it, so it will be used. I'm in no position to be spending money on replacement rod(s).

looks good, be sure and keep the project updates coming. Looks like you need a turbo snowmobile not a turbo cavy
