Come on then, put me out of my misery! What u got??????? :huh: :cool:

Well one is an obd2 2.8 vr6 bored to a 3.0 with wossner low compression pistons but has been stripped for overhaul but I was only going to do that myself with whatever engine I bought.
The other one is a AAA lump with a 2.9Abv head with schimmel cams.
I'm off to pick them up Friday! Wahay!

Didn't realise you had a pic of the borbets on, they look the sex!! The rears are gonna look the dogs with 195s and my old 20mm spacers, and I reckon the fronts look sound as they are. Massive improvement. Wish you'd got me round to share the erection moment though  :smug:

They are growing on me lol.
When they get back from aerocoat I may fully like them but ATM I'm on the fence! Lol

Both lumps sound the shiz!!! Cant wait to see how this pans out! I kinda agree with you with the borbets though. They are a great wheel, (I have em too), but just don't look 'really special' if you know what I mean.  :undecided:
