I swiped a door mat from our old armory, and use it as an oil mat whatever I park, because it leaves a pretty puddle. I say this every time it comes up but surely the parts to run a Subaru EJ22 aren't nearly that expensive? I know you'd lose a lot of the air-cooled charm and simplicity but you could trade it for a relative fuckload of horsepower.

Metal Geir Skogul posted:Yeah, though it'd be a pain in the dick, less than constantly fixing it I guess. You can get washer thinguses which let you use safety wire with non-drilled bolts. Motorcycle racers love 'em. http://www.jpcycles.com/product/910-159

What about Lexan? That poo poo is pretty easy to cut and you could even get one of those cool slidey-vents.

Looks pretty good. After a few months in the sun that appliance epoxy will probably fade to be closer, but even if not it's still much better than it was. How's the roof?
