Yeah, broke the car again. Laughing Don't know how I did it but the clutch fork snapped right in half. Weird thing is, I stock it and the retaining T-bolt at my work. Should be back up and running tomorrow. These inconveniences are getting in the way of my turbo build! Very Happy

I've heard that happening with the LT1 style stuff since it's all whacked out. Bad design. I try to stear people away from it.

Really? I'd never heard of this before, but then again I don't hang around lt1 cars much and I did all the research (or lack thereof) for this when I was 18. Laughing

Laughing No, believe it or not; my old boss and his wife stole that one for me for my birthday last year.

I've collected 2 large cones so that if I ever find a nice quiet lot somewhere I can practice doing figure 8 donut/drifty control. The only signs I have are a STOP and a "Caution Speed Hump" Laughing Laughing

Cones are another thing I have a TON of. You'd be surprised how many cones of all different sizes, styles, shapes can fit into an 82 'yota tercel!
