jamguitarist Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 She even caught my good side She drives a 2013 TC. Surprisingly roomy. I've hauled v8 engine in the trunk of it! Hopefully it'll be getting traded off on a Mini soon. She wants the turbo manual model. We test drive one and it wasn't bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanyb505 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 ...engine in the trunk of it.... If my then girl friend had any doubts I was a gear head, they were laid to rest when I put my Jeep 4.0 in the back of her Rav4. Happily married now.

seanyb505 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 It was 8 years ago now. It went back into my 97 Cherokee, just as a 4.6 when all was said and done. Someone hit it a few years ago, and the Subaru replaced it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StkmltS Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Did you end up getting that longblock? I'm really curious to see what the heads look like. My DiySB rebuild Got Misfires? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamguitarist Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 I did not. Unfortunately modding this car must be put on hold, most likely permanently. Bigger purchases on the horizon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
