Nice work, NES. It's coming up real nice.
Wow, that cut must've made you say "golly gosh!"  At first I was concerned about your ability to have kids, but then I realised it was your melon.

Hey Marc, that's a decent cut on the noggin mate, hope all is well. The exhaust looks great in and out of the car, all we need now is a video of the motor running and the exhaust note.

Well that only took 3 years! And you have been bagging me about how long it's taken lol

Sound pretty sweet! You obviously got the little pink plug sorted.

Only 339 days left to get it done!!

Stupid plug.

For those who won't know I had the engine on the hoist and as I was guiding it into the bay had the loom plug to PCM fall off and get crushed by the wheel of the hoist. 32 wires per plug and picked up a another cheap one. Ripped all the damaged ones out only to find out the replacement plug was for a V6😡and completely different. So got the Holden manual and painstakingly fed each wire into each slot only to find out IT DOESNT WORK. pulled my hair out for a week only to sit down and actually go through the wiring diagram of the PCM and not the plug diagram and worked out they are different! Imagine that- a mistake by Holden!!
What the vid doesn't show is after all that I hit start and forgot to connect the bloody lines from the gearbox 😡😡 and now have a truck load of oil to clean up. At least the vid doesn't show the heartache and pain behind the scenes.
Makes it all worth it my wife says- makes me fkn angry I say, what would she know? Get back in the kitchen.
