I wouldn't. Could have a hairline crack in the porcelain. Not worth chancing it.

Since you haven't created any filings you should be AOK.
Ok. That's good.

One of our customers came in today, and informed me that he just sold a set of comp cams that would fit my car for $300. Sure was nice of him to inform me of that.

Ya. I bought ordered the COP from amazon since it's $20 cheaper and it would take about the same amount of time for O'Reilly to get it in. Plugs are half the price of amazon at O'Reilly, so it looks like I'll have to stop there anyways.

I always knew you'd end up blowing a gasket one of these days.

I'm about to make them one of those get along shirts. It's gonna be great. Ill definitely take pics. Lol
Yeah, must see that. Or do like we mentioned before. Duct tape them together face to face and tell them to talk it out, lol.

Yeah, I remember that happening a lot back some years ago.

Me either.

I hate that the wolf population in idaho has gotten so bad that nearly an elk a day is killed by a pack just for sport. they eat a few of the organs and the rest go to waste. Once I get a chance to harvest one at some point in my life, i'll have a tat representing it. Hoofprint if its a cow, horns somehow if its a bull.
