Ive Been Holding back but its now time.....
Ok a long time ago sometime last summer i decided to pull my motor and freshen things up a little. I replaced just about every seal i could and painted the engine bay and i was going to make an album after words. How ever this never happened. and im sorry if i left some people hanging. I dont usually get on this website much anymore But ive put it together and here are my results from start to finish.

Bro i actually have put less money into my car than people might think. most of everything done to my car was done either through trades or crack head cheap priced stuff.
