And my post was deleted, WHY? :icon_conf
I cleaned out more than your post, so calm down, that whole block was off topic and getting no where but ugly...

And just a heads up, I'm 99.999% sure that those water outlet housing bolts are discontinued! I have the spec somewhere for the length, thread & pitch for a replacement, i'll track it down for ya
Are you talking about the two bolts that hole the thermostat housing in place? They are 6mm... I replaced mine with allen head 6mm bolts, I want to say they were 1.5" long... Dont use the black bolts, get stainless, the black ones will rust...

Yup, those two, i don't know if it's quite that long, but 6mm thread sounds right, the pitch should be 1.25, I'll double check when i find my sheet that I actually wrote all this down

Get some stainless allen head bolts, they loooook shexy! I dumped most of my bolts for allen heads, and I think Imgoing to dump those and get all ARP... ARP now has small metric bolts in stainless... ;) There is one guy that has them, and he's MY inspiration, so I dont think he'll mind if I follow in his footsteps... :)

Yes, yes, and yes :D

seriously though, if you find somewhere good that has SS hardware around here, let me know, or if it's convenient to grab a couple more, I'll buy em off of you! I just haven't gotten around to it yet

I actually washed my car today.
It always amazes me how good my car looks when washed.
Then I see all the little scratches and the front end, and little dents and dings, and it makes me sad.
I'm having a tough time deciding now whether or not I really want to go white. Black is sooooo hot when it's clean. but you have to clean it ALL the freaking time. and I'd have to tear everything apart and paint the whole car.
I DONT KNOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Sup Rolling Stones.
I need to find some time to do my gauge cluster.
All my time off is spent with my girlfriend!
And I need to do homework right now, but supramania is way more fun.

I doubled owned my self even more.
My throttle cable was not in the linkage(? if that's the correct name for it, I'll get a picture later tonight) and my floor mat was preventing my pedal from going down alll the way.
After that,
I'm now hitting about 10.5 psi boost, and it's so much more responsive.
Man, I'm just nubbin it today
