Should be damnit. I dropped the motor, and I was in such a hurry before, I didn't notice the damn power steering lines and fittings are in the way. I didn't even think how I would adapt the power steering pump from a GM motor to a Mazda car. Then I called Brian Hinson and was told only a couple people have figured out how to fix that up, but his swap parts are made for a manual rack. Thanks for telling me that ahead of time. So I had to remove the motor. Now I need a damn manual rack. I need to find a junkyard with a regular model RX-7 in it...

But I will still be at quick 8 just to watch...

I wish you could have stomped me too, at least I would be running. Hopefully you can stomp my ass at the next quick 8. What you drive?

Oh, and I need it from a 86, 87, or 88. I found a couple for $75, but they are just too damn far to go get.
