Well it's been awhile since I've posted in here. So where to start. Well I pulled the trans for a rebuild. In the process I decided to pull the engine and check it over. I supposedly only had around 15k miles on it since it was rebuilt. Well someone had been into the engine. I also found quiet a few things screwed up.The first thing I found was the intake was missing 4 bolts ( bad), next the oil pump gasket was leaking horribly (worse), pulled the vale cover and found half the cam cap bolts loose (worse yet), and the mother of all the head nuts (arp studs) weren't torqued even close to where they should be. So in te middle of the tranny rebuild came a engine rebuild. Pulled the engine completely apart checked everything over and replaced the bearings, seals/gaskets, and rings. I replaced all hoses belts (timing belt included) and such. Put engine back together the way it should be. Cracked open the trans and found the 1st/2nd shift fork wore. Replaced all shift forks and brass rings. Also found the output gear and center diff gears chipped. Replaced those and all bearings. put trans back together. Scrubbed the engine bay and repaired anything I found I didn't like. Reinstalled the engine and trans. Only to find the clutch slave cylinder was junk. Replaced it and everything is good again. Had to do a retune due to no leaks in the intake tract now. Car runs a feels so much better then it did.

Here's a pic of my output gear

now a after engine shot. I also bought some heat shields that where missing and installed a new timing belt cover I had laying around.

I also redid the exhaust and got rid of the fart can. Replaced it with a flowmaster.

Now I have about 3k miles on the rebuild. Car is running great and I am using for DD duties. I bought four tires for it Sat.. Next up will be the exterior.
