I'm up for a coffee anytime guys. I really don't have to much on the go right now. I might have a head gasket to fix at my bro's, but its a duramax, and the entire truck has to come apart. Such a aweful design. He's getting oil/diesel into coolant. I think that he has one of his injector cup seals blown. Just an excuse for me to drink his beer.

I guess the motor toast, so he just put in another motor. Chevy stuff is so durable. He thinking now that there a broke piston or bent rod. He was pushing 40psi of boost for one run and then it had a knock. The motor was a high miler, 300000km and couldn't take 40psi. I told my brother that I do that kinda of boost daily with my truck and it only makes that clang-clang VP sound. Chevy guys...

Big Dave, what you up to? Buying paint solvents? I can't wait to see how it turns out for you. A few more paint jobs, you'll be doing it full time. I could come over and help sand for abit, if you need a hand. My week is pretty free right now.
