Cobalt is going down so it can be turbo since tuning is available for the L61 in the Cobalts!!! YAY! So I wanted a new daily driver and decided to snag up this one from Jeremy. At least this one is drivable, but i think the valve seals are toast now so it doesn't drive. 1-2 quarts of oil in less then 100 miles is a bit excessive.

Mainly just to make it very reliable and clean as fuck under the hood.
I have basic bolt ons in mind, but I may get greedy and slap a nitrous kit on it since the Cobalt will be down for a long time. Hopefully I will refrain from doing so, so that money can go to the Cobalt. But anyways here are some initial pictures of crap laying around.........
still trying to completely clean motor (i media blasted it, and am going over it with wire brush to shine it a bit)
going to run the 01 piston/rod combo with 97 crank
going to fully weld diff, blast the trans too, and paint the gear selector and five gear/reverse cover to match valve cover
just need to sand the saturn lettering down and lay clear on it
thats it for now.................. need monies!!
