On a side note, my tire is pregnant.
My bad.....It's been a while and the valve stem was a "perfect fit".

Not really. There are motor mounts now for the V6's that allow the motor to be dropped right in and have the hood close completely, no cutting needed :-D

But it's definately going to be a while >:-/

You will more than likely still have to trim the hood skeleton (bracing) and suffer from under-car clearance issues. Please don't crack your pan....there are enough "oil slicks" in Highland Springs.

Indeed, Indeed. I'm still learning the ways of the V6 swap. Definately not going to be gouging holes into it, though. I can deal with a little bracing removal.


Why is it that the entire HS/Sandston area is super neglected from pothole fixes!???

You answered your own question with that one.

That fucking crater at Holly and 9mile has been patched 7 times in the past year.

There's a fucking monster of a pothole on the 295N exit going down Airport. You would destroy your car hitting that shit.
