to be honest it sucked
thankfully i went during late winter months so it wasnt as bad as it coulda been. but running around a desert with 25lbs of armor and another 40+ of gear is never fun haha

Unfortunately not this time. Most of the money I saved is going to my 1992 firebird this time around

almost done with phase 1 of the project, the goal was a simple headgasket and up swap because i had a leak somewhere. Engine is almost stripped down all the way to the block now. My friend and I spent a good 7-8 hours working yesterday on it. Neither of us has done this before. Unfortunately on the way through like all things I found more stuff to fix. Needed new spark plug wires, spark plugs(they were falling apart as I took them out lol) distributor cap and rotor and possibly a whole new distributor. We're gonna take it in today to get it checked out. Picked up some really nice bosch iridium fusion plugs though. Quite spendy. Have pictures of each stage of the project so far and will continue with the photography. Will post all the pictures when I finish. Hopefully sometime this afternoon/evening but we will see. I know its not a lancer
but I figured someone might be interested...
