The car runs like new, (better) burns no oil, leaks nothing. hard to believe.
I think about 152k, bet it is in the first few posts of this thread.
Scary thing is this is not my daily. I drive alot.
Picked up the radius rod bushings today, oil change & they will go in this weekend.
WTF with the clutch? apparently they need a better distribution chain. Sorry.

Lol, no, I meant old as in 60s and 70s. The new ones are pretty nice, but as I said in the PMs earlier, its not light enough for me 
I was also thinking about dropping that motor I have into an old Mini. I was seriously considering it about 2 years ago. So much so that I went down to a company in GA and spoke with them about it for awhile. I sat in one, and they are tiny, but I want one. But I couldnt find one in decent shape. Theyre pretty cool, you can have a full interior, A/C, stereo, and still hit 11s in the 1/4 mile. And thats with less then 300hp.
BTW, what sort of plates are those?

Here is what are in the boxes:

Yeah I haven't been on the site in months...I blew the fucking engine!
Hit a jump @ 60mph and blew up my oil pan and threw a rod.
Now I'm rocking the bus everywhere and fucking hate my life...lol

Sorry about your car.
Here is what is next:
Waiting for fluid to do full flush and then these will be on the car, this was a test fit to be sure the wheels cleared.
Thanks for the brackets to Civicdrivr!

really? find the calipers for cheap is the hard part, then what, another $125 or so for brackets (no hook ups) and then few more hundred for rotors. seen the rl calipers go for $400+. but if i find them for cheap than ill do what u did.
