Subject: Thursday Chat 09.06.12 by Matatk on 2012/9/6 11:35:34 Good Morning CGs! Alarm worked this morning. Amazing when you turn it on, it does its job. Got a chance to work on the car last night. Got ready, couldn't find my torque wrench. Then couldn't find the gasket maker, then couldn't find some miscellaneous stuff. It was the universe's sign to stop and not do the job. But being the reckless individual I am, I did not heed that warning. Found all the stuff, put a nice bead of the right stuff down and installed the intake, torqued, voila. Perfect. Until I realized I didn't take the paper towels out of all the ports. Seriously? WTF? Who does that? Apparently me. I was in such a rush I just neglected to do it. Off with the intake. Clean everything again, painstakingly. Ran out of TRS, so I used permatex ultra blue that I had. Still worked out ok. So another hour later the intake base was installed. Again. Ugh. I'm gonna retorque today and then pull the VCs and try to install the runners and plenum. Hopefully I have some time. We'll see. Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew |
