<div dir="ltr">Ugh. Once I removed The Beast from my SE-R in 1999 it never moved again. I had planned to restore it, but one day, while working on another car, I saw a piece of rust fall off it, and at that point I realized I'd have to replace too damned much stuff. Wasn't worth it, even though I was the original owner and wanted to keep it forever. The engine was donated to our LeMons SE-R after we blew the engine in that in the last stint of the day. Drove about two hours from the track to my house and dropped the original engine from the car (I had already reinstalled it intending on reviving it). Grover and I were about ready to drop it when the boys showed up with the race car. They started working on dropping that while we finished dropping the engine from my car. Midnight engine swap in not too many hours. I'm sure the neighbors loved the work lights. The next day the car ran like a scalded cat with the low mass flywheel, JWT PP, and low mass pulleys. The difference off the corners was amazing. Sometime later I'm told it gave up the ghost as well.<div><br></div><div>Today's driver is my 1998 M Roadster, which I just woke up after a 4 year slumber.
