Great....you removed an engine.

You want a reach around or a straight mouth fuck for your troubles?

It's a trap. Don't fall for it. Unless that motor's completely hosed, put it back in. It's going to beg you for something with more torque, higher redline, something. DON'T FALL FOR IT. Next thing you know, you'll be penniless, the car will run only tolerably, and you'll be posting in the forum of a club that doesn't know you while they pour heartless derision on you while your soul burns in a pit of mk1 misery.
Replace that engine with only less powerful motors, to show that chassis that YOU make the calls. Then kick it. Be like "I don't need your shit, bitch. Take this GX block. TAKE IT!" To really show it you mean business, pry off the WE badging with a screwdriver and throw it on the lawn. If it thinks it's special, it'll walk all over you.

I'm on my fourth 'rocco now. I buried the other three in fifty-five gallon drums underneath my front porch. They never fucking learn.

I'm hoping to. We already have a campsite booked. Anyhoo here's some more motor progress as of a week ago.

Well, car still hasn't started. It coughed a few times, thats about it. Seems the distributor cap is doing a little dance as the rotor spins. I have some troubleshooting to do tomorrow.

Found out, after driving it for nearly a month, that my cam and spark were off by two teeth from the crank. Dunno if I had belt skip or what. Thing ran very well even with the timing all wrong. Now it's a damn rocket. Hope your tuning goes more smoothly.

Tuning hasn't really gone that great. some days it'll start, some days it won't. For some reason, I can't tighten a timing belt to save my life either.
