Picked up the paint samples today and ordered the rings bearings and sump set of seals as well as the high temp paint for the block and pan. Let the prep work begin! God I hate sanding =/

Today I grinded all the underseal off the outer sills and noticed a welding job that isn't really up to standard, so I am looking for 2 new outer sills (left and right) to purchase, anyone know of a good supplier?

Today I mainly laughed at how snappy it is in the wet. But did get some nice remarks from the guy I was giving a lift to.
Opened his eyes to how much cooler 21's are compared to 30 's ;)
