Indeed, your thread happens to be fully recoverable! It will take some work, but it can certainly be done. Let me know if you want to start the recovery process!

Absolutely. You've probably seen some of my posts and questions on the FB group (Don Jennings), I have a pile of parts en route.

Send me a PM on Facebook then if you get a chance, I can send you a link with the basic concept of thread recovery.

OK, so I'm using IMGUR and Will is going to assist me with converting Photobucket stuff later on. I figured I'd post the car, since it's on 4 wheels (and nice ones at that) and rolls around somewhat.

Those Honda HX wheels?

[DON SVO]

Yeah, I had them blasted to bare aluminum and then powder coated clear.

4 year vacation? Just read some of your earlier threads and wondered what the outcome was. Welcome back Don.

I wouldn't call it a vacation... logistics issues is a better term, in addition to marriage and a 15 month old daughter. I'm in a position now to dust off the Festy and finish it up. It'll be different than the original plan, that's for sure.

Some of my parts collecting:

1/2" thick stainless BP exhaust flange



1995 Mazda Miata CAS



Corolla COPs, COP/no dizzy conversion harness for Megasquirt, new Ford body injectors, COP adapter bracket, and a G Series intermediate shaft adapter

[DON SVO]

More parts collecting: KAinjection rods, ARP2000 rod boots, KAinjection CAS cap, conversion harness for the injectors, fuel rail and injector spacers.

I looked up KAinjection, connecting rods and the only information I could find on them involves going on Facebook. I closed my Facebook account. I don't have time for all the bs. and lies, not to mention getting friend requests from people I don't know nor never will. I don't understand why the car forums have lost members to Facebook. Nice looking rods though.

I'm not the biggest fan of FB either, I use it for my family to send photos of my daughter and a few car groups.

However, there's several businesses that I've connected with on FB related to Festivas (KAinjection and BP Specialties being a couple of them) and FB proved to be a valuable resource: without it, I wouldn't have a lot of the custom/one-off particular build type things you see above.
