This isn't really a reply to anyone in particular. I just wanted to say I got all the engine parts for my turbo project back from the machine shop last night.
A-12 block, bored out for
A-14 .040" oversized pistons
A-12 rods with full floating wrist pins
A-12 crank fully balanced
A-12 head with TRIPLE valve springs
ARP head stud kit
Nissan Motorsports Metal head gasket
And everything is coated with either antiheat or antifriction stuff as the situation warrants.

So, here comes my usual lie: "Oh, baby. Of course I love you." No, wait. Wrong forum. The usual lie is "I'm going to take some pictures of these parts and post them."

I'm still debating with myself on the FI versus carburetor issue. Tensandtwenties gives me a parcel of crap every time I whine about the price of the FI's ECU.
"You have no problem dropping $1500 on the A-12 bottom end but won't pay that for the ECU?" Then I get a whack on the back of the head.
It's hard to justify all of this cash outlay on a car that I paid $5 for. Geeze, I'm an idiot!
