RE: got my engine back
ORIGINAL: 855.0sean
so i got my engine back finally,well anyways it gave me crap for a day then all was good.
first my engine was overheating so i took my thermostat out it did good for a while then bang!
my top radiater hose blew off! so i put it back on went home loaded it with coolent and water then it did fine and has been ever since.
then a day later my starter started to act up and now i need a new starter!
but good news is before the starter was freakin out i got to race a 04 honda haha stupid vtec didnt stand a chance! hahaha
well anyways this might sound really wierd but i swear on the bible i was going 106mph in second gear when i raced him! i know i was like wtf???? i didnt believe it at first but shurr enough got on the highway did it again i was wondering what in gods name kind of gearing can do that? and i was at 5500 rpm and it doesnt take very long to get there haha
so let me know what you guys think it is thanks.

On a serious note, you should really switch those 0.07 gears out for some 3.73's...
