martin34 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Got to agree with turner boy and wait for 2 weeks.Doing the credit thing is ok but you will probably need another engine by the time the credit is up and you will still be paying for this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyper.seven Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 lol yeh probably.. the 3.3 thats in now hasnt seen 1/4 of a tank.. so might aswell get a bit of use out of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
