    • Well....at about 11:00am I pulled the engine out of the DD....




      took about 15 minutes since I had already spent what seems a lifetime getting it ready to pull ( waiting to get the donor car home ). Went to my granddaughters soccer game after that. Getting ready to go pull the B6T out of the donor Festy and take the tranny off mine and put it on the B6T and then drop it back in....we'll see how that goes....lol.

        • Upgraded my subwoofer and amp. Old woofer blew last month and old amp wasn't powerful enough to drive the new one.

          The bass is a lot stronger. So strong my rearview mirror keeps creeping downward to where I can't see anything but the back seat.

                • well....last night after I went back out...I tried to clean up the engine bay...






                  I have no clue how some of you guys have the patience to get that thing so clean...it killed me to do what I did....lol. Anyway, after that I separated the engine and tranny and just putz around. So today I am pilling the motor out of the donor and dropping it in the DD. Waiting for some of the dew to burn off.

                              I wish, but for me (and I think some others) I have work/school and can barely get off that Friday unfortunately.

                              • Saved myself 60 bucks by salvaging some front rubber brake hoses of my parts car. Sprayed them with WD-40 and massaged them so the rubber wasn't dried out. Cleaned the threads real good and hooked them up!
