I took a hammer and chisel to the crank sprocket on my engine and shattered it to get it off. I just bought a new one for like $11

man, that sucks about the sprocket and all that fluid. I am under the assumption I am leaking steering fluid from the rack. My rear k frame and passenger side control arm are soaked in it. Are you experiencing this as well? Other than that, GO MAN GO. MOAR BOOST PLZ!!!! :rockon:
