So it didn't click in my head..but you have some bad valves eh....

I got two spare heads that I'd have to check but they probably have good valves in them.

If it helps you out, I'd let you had the head for cheap.

Thanks. I'll get back to you. This head SEEMS to be ok and the valves are about $12 a piece for me so I'm gonna have the machine shop look over the head/block/crank. I'll let ya know if I end up needing something

So the bitch bit you back eh? Gotta watch them Dodges. Non, nom,

Man, as skinny as your arm is there, you might need that fat. It would have a nasty dibbit without it!

Jake - The silver car is getting the SRT motor, the black car is getting, errr.... well it's getting well loved

Bill - haha the Dr. told me he stuffed it back in for my piece of mind.

And speaking of which, I got the stitches out last week and now that the holidays are over and the wound is healed I decided to finish dismantling the neon yesterday. My brother and I went over around 2 PM and started working on the car. The cat was a bitch to get off the midpipe, the rear section was putting up a fight too. Being that the hole exhaust was just hanging free didn't help either. After that we got all the fuel and brake lines out from under the car, dropped the gas tank, and removed the rear suspension. The passenger side came apart with some effort, but as expected the drivers side was seized like I expected the control arms would be and we had to cut the control arms off as the bolt was seized through the knuckle. The bolts hold the tension strut were seized to the floor over there too so we cut that off as well. The car is officially now just a bare shell ready to go to the scrapyard once the title comes in the mail.

You spelled "whole" wrong.

Your arm must not have it's fat content arranged correctly yet.

that damn "w" key slipped away again!! well played sir, well played!

I told him he could've left it out. I probably would have had a weird lump in my arm then though haha

Ugh. I would have probably thrown up seeing my fat coming out of my arm, and I have a bit more than you lol.

Glad to see work is coming along well, the 05 def needed some love.

Ha! Jerry you have no idea... It looked like a brain hemmoraging from my arm. I was so sick and freaked out looking at it because I didn't know what it was. I'm surprised I didn't puke or pass out lol.

The '05 now needs more love in the form of a thermostat. I keep getting a CEL for operating temp out of range, too low. And the car takes way too long to warm up.

It's not a "bare" shell, I still see glass in it.

Better stuck open than stuck closed though. I had the same thing happen in my 98 when I first bought it, it never heated up, they just go bad sometimes.

Sean - wanna come pull it? I really don't.

Jerry - yeah I just need to get around to ordering one and putting it in.

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 1:47 pm

Nope, but in order for it to be a "bare shell" that has to be removed. Just pointing out that you're wrong.

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 5:56 pm

pointing on that I'm wrong? hmm....

little to no sense that is making right now.

I wouldn't mind having the glass but I have nowhere to keep it and no good way to get it out.

Fishing line, and a couple of strong guys.

Time to call on Dan and Adam for some help.

That should have said "pointing out that you are wrong." It's fixed now.
