Message	I started pulling my motor last night so I can install some HKS wastegate actuators - I hack jobbed my stock actuators to use w/ my new turbos last summer, and they aren't holding past 14.5 psi. So, in about 3.5 hours, I managed to get everything on the topside disconnected - accessories, belts, radiator, coolant & oil drained, & all hoses & plugs disconnected. All I have to do tonight is drop the exhaust, then driveshaft, then tranny, then disconnect the oil cooler lines for clearance and I can pull it out. So it looks like the time to pull the motor the second time around will be < 6 hours, versus probably ~ 25 back in June. I should have it back in in plenty of time to whore some bastages this weekend! Rule #1 - There's always a bastard!
