Completion time was supposed to be this Friday, however it has been bumped to next Friday. It's getting exciting, but stressful being without the car another week and I'm not sure how to pressure the shop, or if I should.

Unfortunately I do not, I assumed it was a connecting rod, but I asked when I was speaking with him today since he's torn all of that part down and rebuilt it, but we can't find a connection to something that's missing. We presume that they actually just left a bolt or debris in the engine itself (which wouldn't surprise me with how messy the other shop is).

Here are some more update photos.











Some shots of the old Vanos with some junk in it
