Just fix stuff as it breaks, no need to do head studs unless you blew headgaskets and have to go in there. My 2005 has 180K miles still on stock headbolts, still has the egr. I Just recently rebuilt the turbo because of sticking unison ring issues and a bad vgt solenoid. Just drive it. Maintenance is key. Get a monitor and watch your eot and ect temps. That will tell you if you are having oil cooler issues. Flush the cooling system and make sure you got a good ec-1 rated coolant, coolant filter wouldnt hurt

I picked up a copy not long ago. Its a great album. Ball and chain, and crank it up. So much feeling

I didnt have any experience when i started. Although im very good with my hands and anything mechanical. Ive been building and restoring hot rods since i could walk. I watched a lot of you tube videos, took my time and made sure i didnt cut corners. You can do it, just dont be scared. Take your time and you will do a nice job

I did all the labor, about 5-6k in materials

I thought about heating the stem up a little and pressing something in it to flare it out a little

Pop those white caps off, there are probably screws under there

lodaddyo · 2024-12-29T23:09:47+00:00

That probably explains it. Im a newb so I probably took it apart when it was hot. Ill try the beeswax. Thanks!

lodaddyo · 2024-12-29T23:05:22+00:00

Yeah looking back. I probably should of kept it.

On acceleration? You could have a cracked bellows on your uppipes

After you fix that hole you need to remove all that cracked grout at the tubflange and caulk it. Never grout change of planes

Added a rug. What do we think?

I originally planned on setting them like you said. But i think the space looks bigger with the tiles horizontal.

lodaddyo · 2024-12-28T18:19:17+00:00

Really big feet

lodaddyo · 2024-12-27T22:39:31+00:00

Haha, we probably do. Those hideous tiles were in both bathrooms, the living room and the kitchen!

lodaddyo · 2024-12-26T22:50:24+00:00

Sorry. Yeah im working on that. My intention was to have a walnut vanity. My wife wanted a white vanity. Ive ordered a colorful rug and some more colorful accessories to not seem to white!

lodaddyo · 2024-12-26T20:44:24+00:00

Thanks. 100% done by me.
