I've had the Ex for about a year and ahalf i've done 3 swaps to it already. Bought it with a stock ls turbod by ebay lol..



future plans...... cage it, Race it get use to the car and enjoy it

^ That sound about right except the 60$ to turn the crank...unless you had some real damage you could have just used some 800grit, oil, and a shoelace.

I get mine put on a lathe for 28$, if it cost 60$ I would use the shoelace method (I believe the steps are also in the helms book)

I know you already got it done, just sayin. Maybe something to think about next time around

if you ask me... 60 is cheap to get a crank turned. around here it costs 150 to get it turned down. unless he's just referring to getting it polished. i get my cranks mic'd, magnafluxed, and polished for 50

I was assumming it was only a polish cause he had allready bought the bearings...but yea, to cut a F%$^ up crank cost more. (if its still usable)
But im sure it all getting done by a shop and they know what there doing

Thanks bro...no nothing on my DA I have a feeling she might turn up after Feb. because the tags expire and I have a feeling the fools that stole her are probably driving it around or repainted it or something. It's all good though I have my new ride and I won't start building him until later this year
