Well, I got the motor from SR20dev a little over a week ago, and this
weekend proceeded to do the motor swap (with the help of Chuck, Justin, Joe
and Eric, you guys kick ass! Thanks!).

We got the motor swapped and everything in on Sat, this includes assembling
the hoist, Lunch, Dinner and ALOT of BS'ing! ; -)

We pulled the water pump off the new/used motor just to check it, good thing
we did..it was trashed.  So we swapped that, and had to pull the oil pan and
bang it out flat, it was a BIT dented.

Thanks alot to the guys for coming over and helping out.. oh yea, and now
AZ-SERCA has a hoist to use for motor swaps!! (yahoo!).

Well, the car didn't start for a day or so, and I just took the time to
figure out why.. the fuel line and return lines were hooked up backwards..
once I switched them around, the car started immediately!

Thanks again goes out to Chuck, and the JJE crew (Justin, Joe and Eric)..
