I poured over every ounce of it, an excellent write-up!--Mega squirt "unit assembly" was the coolest thing going for me. :D

I think it's really cool that you've had the balls to learn TIG welding on this project---I guess I'm just curious about why you risked it instead of taking it to a shop? Either way, all of your **** is calculated-- meticulous---"risk, risk, risk," and I that's certainly the reason that your car(s) is the envy of most.

xxJOnniOpticxx hacks another one!

hip hip hooray, hip hip...

What else is there to say? You're doing an amazing job.

Where are you located? I just ask because you mentioned Connecticut being close, and its where I happen to be. :)

Keep up the awesome work, and I'll check out the video when I get home from class.

I am in Pennsylvania, ~30 mins outside of Philadelphia. CT wasn't "CLOSE" but it was justified driving 3 - 3.5 hrs for an M50 motor thanks to BJL4776 on this forum!

Yea, im pissed I sold im my M50 although i am glad that i sold it to him out of anybody else I could of. Im doing MS too, unfortunatley time, money, and space made it almost impossible to try and build that motor at this point in time.

I am "the guy" who supplied the TDC picture. Is that the only credit i am getting? "the guy"?

Yaofend - I wrote this write up to suit multiple forums, so people on bf.c, blowneuroz, etc etc where i put this will not know "Yaofeng" additionally the pic you supplied was of M50 vanos which was not exactly correct.

More importantly if I went thru and quoted/thanked each person individually, the thank you would be longer than the article. Thanks though.

Yipes, still in college? I hope you're an engineering student Jon because if you're not you should be. Impressive and coherent writeup. Good job!

Yeah, will be a senior this fall finally! No engineering studen here - MIS (management of information systems). Hmph.
