Thanks

So last night I worked a bit more on the motor, throwing the front timing belt crap on along with the oil pan - 08 STI oil pump with 08 STI oil pickup.. woot. Cams are out and I need to get some more assembly lube to put them back together.

Thanks for the props. - I'm waiting on some gallery plug adapters to get sensors in for my gauges before I put the intake manifold back on. It's just a little easier than trying to fight stuff in the way, hah.

whatever works - I need to get 90% of the mechanical shit done this weekend. hopefully I can get this cam gear off, swap the cams and god willing subimods has my parts. Then I just need to wait for my quickener which should be here on the 29th
