I wish I could have been there. But i'm still waiting for the part I need from the dealer.
The dealers in hialeah/hollywood, didn't have it stock. So I don't know how long it'll be till they get it. I did place the order though.
Pete any news from your friend?
Rick any news from the toyota tech?
lol
I'm driving my brothers mitsubishi galant for now.
He's getting his tibby on friday.

I think julian's mechanic has the best price so far.
I know it was less than 500.
I'm considering not driving my car for a while, and just racking up the rest of the parts needed for my build in the mean time.
Thanks for getting that info for me pete.

I just don't see how he can fit my car into his schedule =/
dammit, even julians mechanic isn't picking up now, lmao.
pete are you sure you don't want to install my gasket and headstuds, lol.

as long as its not as much as your friends rate

Hey julian does your mechanic kevin give you an attitude? sheesh lol.
I gave him some background information on my car so he knows whats up.
Then I asked him a couple of questions, and I told him, "assuming the head and block aren't warped. About how much do you think it'll be to install the gasket and headstuds?"
I just said it to verify the price he had told me last time (which is more than what he stated last week when I called, by a bigggggggggg margin.)
Hes like "this isn't an express service. when I get to it, i'll get to it."
The two times, i've spoken to him, both times he's given me a freakin attitude. F**k that, lmao. He definitely needs to work on his people skills.
Anyway, Thanks for the info though julian. I appreciate you helping me out too.
I'm gonna have to start calling random mechanics in the area.
