Re: Engine wanted

I am just finishing up putting the R2.8 in my FJ-40 with part of the goal being to help inform the viability of using it in my Pinz. I will be following your progress as well [emoji4] https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190125/8afff569c0bb1eaab62f5978708921c1.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2019...

Re: New Volvo c304 owner new engine swap/ camp rig project

I'm currently in the middle of installing that engine in my FJ40.

Re: KLUGEWERKS Disc Brake Conversion Kit Updates

I know him personally and have texted him several times recently with no response. Last I heard from him was mid June (I went over to his place and we did some work on my wiper motor). I’m definitely concerned..
