hey you need to get you manual swap done. It took me and a friend a full day and cost only 250. Also the valve cover looks good. Nick

I took it in and they sandblasted it, primered it with something it looked like, them powdercoated it. 35 bucks.

Nick, yes I know I need to get my 5spd swap done. I have NO CLUTCH, STILL. I am about to loose my mind. I doubt it would only take me and a friend one day to do it. I dunno though. It might could happen. The only problem is, finding time.

You didn't take it anywhere...except from me after I got it back from the powdercoating place for you.

:D

You don't have to lie to have friends, LCB.

It does look damn good though...seen it in person. If anyone else wants theirs done, it only takes a couple of days.
