Headliner? Is there enough room up there for something to crawl up and die? Or maybe a pillar?

Hansolio posted:Man, on the 06 - 08.5 GTI the PCV is a plate on the front of the head that's way easier to work with, I just replaced mine with a block off plate not too long ago. I guess part of "fixing" the oil consumption issues with the later engines was that PCV redesign. Y'all are missing the point that a PCV valve is supposed to look like this: Not that horse-poo poo German hot mess.

Nice, I think my dad has the same radial arm saw. Just, his doesn't look like it was left outside in the woods for 20 years.

I thought "stage X" clutches were tiers within a particular product line. Like the "Monster clutch" I see advertised on ls1tech all the time, comes in "Level 1" through "Level 4", with torque holding values raised appropriately through the line.

TWSS posted:Dude, what the poo poo? Multiply that figure by ten and you have a price that makes sense. The shop I worked at charged $1500 flat-rate labour for an engine re&re and that was for the same engine that came out, so none of wiring hocus-pocus that you're going to put up with. Well, presumably the owner is doing the work, right? He's still tying up Adiabatic's shop and probably will need some assistance here and there, but it's nothing like paying him to do the whole swap for him.

Amazon has some really cheap e-stop buttons, for what it's worth. Probably way less than any local place; I checked my local surplus electronics place and they wanted like $30!

Ferremit posted:My 350k km old Toyota diesel had ovalled bores that were bad enough to need boring but couldn’t feel it or really see it. Take the block to a machine shop and get them to hot tank the castings and get the bores measured and the deck skimmed Or, since you already have it apart, you can just measure them yourself. Get some bore gauges (if that's what they're called? the things that look like a T. My shop teacher called them snap gauges but the internet disagrees) and measure the bores at the top, middle, and bottom going both horizontally and vertically. It's not hard, just takes a little bit of time.
