Wow Cam, what a read it's murphy's law that if you touch the top end of a motor...... and it's happened to me more than once as well........ but it's good to see you kept a cool mature head about it all (altho I bet there were times! :P ) and decided to rebuild the original donk. The new stronger bottem end will be peace of mind and well worth it imo on such a nice car. I found my self tailing white one of these the other day missed my turn off too but was worth it they are such a nice looking car on the road. That new clutch looks sexy! god it's a shame you cant see em :D and the forgy's are a great idea too, remember theyr a different beast to casty's
