Re: let make a car specific thread(dsmers)
My gound wire looks to be fine, but i'm sure Brian will look at it sometime this week....I would have asked him what was wrong but he has been sick!! But thanks for the input!! I might go by advanced and get them to check my battery / alternator today just in case!!

Re: let make a car specific thread(dsmers)
OK guys.....I was pulling into my garage this morning and all of a sudden my check engine light came on.......then my battery light came on as well as my engine bay light and my brake light (even though my e-brake was not pulled up) ....... Do you guys have any idea why all these lights may have came on?? ........ So this morning when I started up my car again to go to work, all those lights still came on, but then I started driving they faded away! But when I come to a complete stop they reappear!! What is going on here!?

UPDATE: It ended up being a bad alternator (like andrew said) .....and that made my battery go dead!! So I had to go to advanced and get them to replace them!! But they weren't even a year old yet!!

Re: let make a car specific thread(dsmers)
I'll be in the Blacksburg area this weekend and was curious if anyone had a spare 1g DSM cylinder head that they were willing to sell off. I will be sending it out for a full build, with new valves, springs, seals, guides, cams, etc, so I just need a perfectly usable core. I would prefer the core never have been milled before. Therefore this is the kind of candidate that would come off an otherwise old 1g motor. I have someone who wants 100 for one who is a very trusted person, he just is in the wrong direction and I wont be able to get to him this weekend I dont think. The head builder expects it to take around 3 weeks, and therefore I would like the head sent out ASAP. Let me know if any of you know of anything in the Roanoke/Bburg area.
