Re: Ecotec I4 in a 3rd-Gen Camaro

Unfortunately, no.

At first, I had all the time in the world, but no money.

Next, I had plenty of money, but not a spare second to do any work on it.

Now, I have enough money and enough time to work on it, but my deadbeat roommate has put two broke-*** cars between the 'Maro and the outside world with a whole bunch of his boxes full of his **** on top of and in it.

So, no, no progress. Just a bunch of burned patience and seething anger.

I would never put anything on top of a car. Let alone let anyone ELSE put anything on top of MY car.

Re: Ecotec I4 in a 3rd-Gen Camaro

Well, considering that it just became against city ordinance for me to work on my own cars in my own drive-way, I'll be moving somewhere else in the next couple months. After I move, I'll have a bigger garage with no deadbeat roommate to contaminate it. If all goes well, should see some rapid progress after the move. Hopefully...
