You were probably just distracted by all the gold chains and chest hair.

July of last year. I spun a rod bearing (95% sure) and I boroscoped the engine and there's no apparent damage so the head should be good ($3000 savings, yea!). I'm planning on getting a short block from Hardtopguy and having the same guy that did my last engine do this one. If I had a sweet car lift like George I'd attempt the swap myself 
I'm going to go with a light weight flywheel and ACT clutch this time too.

Very nice, Rob! Sorry about the engine... When did that happen?

You were on the recruit list. Now we work on Pete, Matt and Rob. I guess Rob will just sleep in his trailer, but he can still break bread with us.

I finally broke down and picked up a trailer. I got it from All Pro West in Mechanicsburg, PA. It's a Motiv RSX Car Hauler made by Aluminum Trailer Company. Now I've got to haul the S to the shop for the engine replacement.
Some of the specs:
26 feet long + 4' wedge nose
Max gross weight of 13,200lbs with 6800lbs of cargo capacity (2 6000lb torsion axles)
+ 6 inch interior height (7 feet)
15,000 BTU air conditioner & heat pump (roof mounted)
Insulated walls & ceiling
120 volt package with overhead lights & interior & exterior recepticals
19 foot awning
Exterior 500w quartz work light
High & low aluminum cabinets in wedge nose
6 recessed 6000lb swivel tie down d-rings
Electric brakes on all axels
Winch plate under floor
Add a fold out couch, fridge & big screen and I can live in the damn thing.
