yea it was a good couple days for the swap, definately thank people on my behalf too for bearing with the living conditions, and the foreign lands u had to reach to get this garage....jk...but all in all most of the work was done during later towards the day, everyday, since i had to work in the mornings and i would pick up steve then head over to the farm lands...haha...but yea it was definately a lot of work, i'm sure its well worth it, and i'm sure steve would mention that too, but i'd agree with steve when it comes to doing this swap if u have a completely stock cb7 or any other car. It might be easier to just start off rite by getting the 5-spd in the first place....
but yea a good couple nights, cuz we mainly worked after the sun went down and i'll say this again steve:
IT WOULD'VE BEEN LIKE %689435489742 EASIER IF WE WOULDA GOTTEN RID OF THE FUKING A/C.
[/sarcasm]
that, once again is my opinion, a lot of people like the luxuries and the comforts of the A/C and would look past the problems and the "getting in the way" of numerous things. So ignore this when i say it: i hate a/c's theyre the one of the worst things to be put in a car, god..i'll stop now, i could write novels of how a/c's are not needed..Happiness is CR-X shaped

very glad i was able to help with the conversion, i had a great time with steve and sunny (crsex). wish i could have stayed longer and got to feel it when it was done, but ill feel it soon. you still have my tools and jack
also be glad that it went as well as it did... this conversion has potential to have some really crappy stuff happen... like if that release bearing wasnt on right, youd be pulling the motor back out again, or somethign small could have gone wrong and been hard to diagnose...
anyway enough babbling, are you glad i encouraged you so much? youre going to absolutely adore your car now... take it from me and 1crawlinaccord (who im glad to see posting now): its like being reborn!

i drive the group to wendy's, park, and we get out and walk through the drive through. we give the lady this story about how we are working on steves car in the development down the road, we have no car, but its late and we are very hungry and want food... so she lets us order and everything, and the greasy hands and clothes helps... then we get the food and walk and jump back in my car, and she sees. then steve gets out and walks back up to the window with some problem with his order and the girl is like "i thought you didnt have a car?!!?" lol...
still waiting on the video footage, doesnt need to be a cut/finished video, i jsut wanna see all our random footage again and show my friends/gf

yea, many many stories to tell aside from the swap itself, the goats, the chikens.....the Burch House at night...the random boats watching us, ofcourse the sickness accompanied us all along, aside from almost all the fluids found in a car, i'm still spitting up break fluid in the mornings haha..
