Hey guys. I'm finally in a normal state of mind....lol.

My single cam is back to running reliably. The noise I heard at startup ended up not being the timing chain guides. It disappeared once I fixed the head. The question is now.....to turbo or not to turbo? hmmmm...

Also, any transmission experts around here? I need to get mine rebuilt. Ballpark price?

I really didn't figure it was. I don't understand why everyone flips out and sells their car every time they get a blown head gasket. Is there some sort of other damage that comes from a blown head gasket? 'Cause if there isn't, I wanna snag that Jetta and fix it.

Greg is off tomorrow so we will all be at the house. Aaron is supposed to be here either REAL late tonight or tomorrow morning.

I said it's not hard to fix; I didn't say it couldn't cause other problems. If ignored, it can cause your motor to vapor lock. Then you are screwed.

Yeah. The guy with the Jetta said it happened a few mornings ago so it should be alright. I'm gonna talk to my mom. She said that her brother might loan me the money so I could buy a car.

Do NOT buy a car that needs to be fixed. Buy something that runs and drives, PLEASE.

Cool! I'll text you when I'm out of school.

On a side note. Do you guys like Z31's? I have a possible trade offer for this one.

Yeah...I'm gonna keep on searchin'. I found a different Jetta today that was in good condish for 800 bucks. Sadly, when I called, it was already sold. Oh well. I'm gonna continue my search until I find something that is a great deal and hasn't been sold yet. I just REALLY don't wanna drive an automatic anymore. I feel like I have more control over the car when I'm driving a stick. Plus -automatics just shift at all the wrong times and I have no way to down-shift or up-shift if I need to.
