Project 69

Ahh shit, first oil change, out with old and in with the new. No more break in oil for this guy. Now we are ready to rev to the moon, those pistons better be ready to meet Jesus. 7,000 rpm in a V8 sure sounds amazing

Finally got around to some engine surgery. Installed a high pressure, high flow oil pump since the stock pump is known to cavitate past 6,000 rpm.

Did a quick night ride in the hills with Turboyota to test out the millions of lights that now call home on the bug. All I can say is wow, these things turn the night into day. All was well, we were having fun and getting wasted on Soleil bubbly waters until disaster struck, well not really but the alternator decided that life was not worth living anymore. Took the alternator back for warranty and they told me that I got coolant on it and coolant killed it. Little disappointed here, I mean I spent $700 so I wouldn’t have any issues and it dies because coolant, do they know that engines have coolant and it can get in the alternator? What the fuck. I guess I’m buying a stock alternator for $150 now

Oh boy, I wish that you hadn't uploaded this sweetness to the interwebs, last time this happened the Berlin wall fell and the cold war ended. Who know what will happen now.
Guys lock up your wife's and lock up your dotters because I cannot be responsible for what happens next.
