its begun,
« on: 12 April 2006, 20:06 »
ive been busy today attempting to put my gti head on my driver and i have to say its gone very well so far, got it off, drilled the hole in the gti head for the coolant channel, bolted it all back together, then i snapped that bolt with the teeth that holds the alternator to the bracket..... so ill get another tomorrow and i should be finished, then i can see if its faster and also if ive missed anything and it blows up, i really should take a corse of some sort

If it is a 90 mph per hour wind and you drive your car at 90mph downwind, if you stick your head outside would you feel the wind?
