haha, true. Well the reason im moving at this pace is because i had 3 weeks off of work (i go back tomorrow) and i blew the engine 2 days before my leave. So the last 3 weeks with no car and nothing to do, gave me plenty of time to rip it apart. Also note, i have NEVER ripped apart an engine...lol. So breaking down the entire black is a nice learning expeirence for me. That being said, ill most likely not being doing the install. Still debating my plan but ill most likely send the block to Speed Circuit. What im doing now is ripping out everything that is damaged and not needed for them. Trying to cut as much weight off of it as i can so the shipping isnt a killer. But because i dont have the cash and i need to get my gf an engagement ring, plus get my ZX6R back on the road. I probably wont be ordering any parts for about a year or so. I picked up a 03 Cavalier for $600 so im hoping that will last me until i get the Evo back on the road.

Also note, all this work on the engine is done in my apartment parking lot and patio, lmao.
