True2Blue Posted November 6, 2010 Author Share Posted November 6, 2010 (edited) OH and im looking for an engine to BUILD if anyone wants to talk about it maybe get a ball rolling. All I want is credit (my name out there) Id like to "polish a turd" and build an EA82 for performance.. I do have a "merchant discount" from parts stores so I pay half as much as everyone else... i will do any other engine as well but id like to make a bad rump roast ea82 Unless I get one first Edited November 6, 2010 by True2Blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 oh WEIRD dude..... i just mapquested your address. my sister and family owned the house at the end of your road, the one thats empty and trashed now. at the powerlines/tracks. your next door neighbor is hella cute, man, i dont know where she lives now, but she works at the matket i grew up next to. sarah. VERY pretty brunette, short girl... small world i guess. that is really awesome that you have such a rural property. that elk run area went to ************, in a very yuppy way, in the last ten years. i already knew, but when you look at it from overhead on mapquest, its even more of a harsh reality. damn crackerbox development neighborhoods..... my place looks like yours. OLD maple valley. real maple valley. so where are you from, you implied in your post that you moved from somewhere else. hope i didnt step on any sore toes?? but i still stand by my opinion about the new neighborhoods.... sorry,,,,, let me know when you want to meet up, if you do. im a good welder, i do mig, and gas, but im learning tig and will be certified in a month or two. Want to hear something even stranger? When I first moved to WA in 83, I used to live just down the street on 232nd Ct E My Dad built the house and my Wife and I lived there for about 4yrs till my Sister moved in. That whole area has certainly been built up in the last several years. Sorry for the hijack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tallwelder81 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 i came by in my gold brat about 11:30 today. knocked on man door of garage. didnt know if it was cool to knock at the house so i just took off. so i am looking for maybe an even hundred horsepower. mostly aiming for midrange. no racing, no hardcore rock crawling. just a stock brat with a little improvement here and there. i really like the brat. i can see myself keeping it my whole life, so i just want it to be solid and reliable. been thinking of diamond plate over my rocker panels. would look cool and beefy. i just wonder if it would promote rust. i dont have much rust. been lucky in that regard. i want to do the 5-spd dual range conversion. rear bumper. side sliders. i have the push bar/skid plate and need to install it all. but yea.... maybe u should throw me your cell number so i can call before i just drop by. i felt like i was trespassing, felt kinda guilty bein there, lol....
