afternoon all just finished shoveling again. Man I need to get that snowblower fixed. figures the worst winter we've had in years and it's broke down. Maybe taxes will allow enough money in the budget for a new one.

Sorry, Chris, no experience with this company. I just replaced front rotors / pads on my wife's Monte, but went with good quality 'normal' rotors (no drilled/slotted). She only brakes really hard when she suddenly spots a yard sale, so I think we're OK...

FYI... I think I paid about $65/rotor for Wagners (through O'Reilly) w/lifetime warranty.

That lifetime warranty is actually pretty cool... once worn down and un surfacable, they replace them once... its well worth it

thanks guys, I have a huge list saved with everything I need, comes to around $850 bucks. That's with rotors, brakes and powder coated calipers @ $25 a piece for powder coating! I would love to just take care of everything at once...

and Jose, I'm not bummed out anymore, it was a pretty good game to watch.

Dr. Phil was a blur today, I'm trying to help my brother find a job so I didn't see to much of it!

Good evening, Y'all! I haven't been well lately, the usual pains, but finally took the trans apart and in the process of cleaning the casing. Here are some pics of the engine/turbo build. Lost the TAC adapter cable so that was 80 bucks extra, but it has been fun!
