1500mile oilchange resulted in seeing more.....so i know 2 things..flakes pushed past the filter for a long long long time(read years) so how much material has been embedded in the bearing surfaces.......which means when it goes it will likely toss a rod or a bearing or both..

so yeah ive started my 1.8 swap gathering..ive got the xd harness, motormounts and some other bits...just keeping an eye out for a low mile cheep 1.8
