    Morning all.
    Debating if I'm going to dive in on the Chrysler today or not, my back is still angry at me! Yesterday my day started with a knock on the door, neighbor lady had fallen (congestive heart failure) and her mother couldn't get her up by herself. Of course she come running to the guy with the bad back!

    That's insane!!! My last ICU stay, three days, was around $78k!
    As far as I know the neighbor I helped is fine? Nice of her hubby, that always needs my help with something, to come rushing over to tell me she's fine, thank me, offer to help with my project, yeah, or not.
    Another neighbor lady came over for most of the day, the Chrysler is done and out of my garage, man she's awesome help! I think she got tired of hearing say "Thank you!"

    Well, the Chrysler is done for now! Another neighbor lady had time to help me today! Don't laugh, she's the real deal, one heck of a mechanic! I wish I could put what's in my head, to an extent, into hers! She pushed a lot harder than I liked, but like she said, we were so close "so suck it up and you don't have to finish it later!" She was right, I'll be screwed up the rest of the week, but other than flushing the coolant system, it's done!
    See if I can get Imgur to play nice, this is how deep I had to go, for those that know,

    Yep, she'd over heated it multiple times, blew the head gasket and warped the head. I had to shave .016" off to get it to clean up.
    And raise the compression. Cool. I had a 47 Plymouth coupe with a lot of custom alterations to the body and a 340. That 340 was balanced and blueprinted. Has the valley ground and polished as well as the intakes ported and polished. Had dual 4s on a high rise. Lowered sitting on Ansen sprints with Michelin radials. This was in the 80s.

    Well, this is a Neon with a hard 150k on it, not sure if this is going to help it or hurt it!
    It's a kids car, divorce deal and of course no one has any money so it had to be done as low buck as possible. Meaning I made nothing.
    You made more than you know.

    Ah yes the premiere baldie extraordinaire, Yul to be exact. Loved the man and his flicks...still do. To bad ecigs weren't available to him. Maybe he would not have died with cancer from smoking.
