on the way home from work on thursday night i hit second gear and i blew the exhaust manifold gasket out, so on friday i got a new one and me and my brother in law installed it that night.
now,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, see, i need to unbolt my exhaust halfway down so i can get movement on my extractors, so after i got the new gasket on we went for a drive with half an exhaust on, bloody thing sounded like a sprint car.
after a warm up lap of the block, i stopped and launched half hard and it tramped slightly and then it kinda only started tramping lightly {hhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm }
then i hit 2nd, same thing, i then backed of and it jolted badly, then i accelerated, jolted again, hhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmm
when we turned in to my street it made the chirping of locker, ooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhh
i undid the rear plate and a chunk of gear fell out and i just pissed my self laughing

i just got a new diff from the wreckers for $65 {complete}
while i was there i "confiscated" a few little things, like a new badge for my grille, and 2 very new tyres and rims, instead of carrying the diff out we put the tyres on and rolled it out and just left 'em on,
and the car had king springs on the front, they want $10 ea, so i'll get them soon too
