More problems yey!

Well the other week my car started acting up hardore. Originally we thought it was internal and needed an engine swap so I bought a motor off a 93 940T for $100. After we did a compression test we got 60-160-160-165, hmm I think we have our issue. Poured oil into cyl1 and still no change in the reading so we knew it was in the head (thank god).

So now for the fun part. We are in the process of cleaning up the head and repainting the valve cover, hopefully this should be all done by tomorrow.(Cleaning and Painting)

Here are some pics of the motor.

We also plan on giving my block a new coat of paint (red) as well as touch up the manifolds and such.

Good deal but spray some PB-Blaster or WD-40 on that block for me.

Picasaweb is useless in terms of posting pics lol.

I'll move them over to photobucket and take pics of the old head.
