    Yeah....you cannot make 25 year old wooden doors with a stain and varnish finish look like new with a stain wipe and a clear coat.....i.e. a $500 effort as opposed to a $2,500 take down restoration refinishing. :roll:

    A few years back we wired a house in a local golfing community. Six times the wife changed her mind when we were ready for rough in inspection. The final go through took 4 months. She had changed her mind several times on different fixtures, all of which were custom orders. I know exactly what you're talking about.

    Sometimes I think we would do our sons favors if we would castrate them at birth.....the majority of women are far more trouble than they are worth and if we were not pussy hounds, we would not need or want them...rant over and please do not attack me...:?

    I guess you got sufficient coolant volume into some cylinder heads to cause hyper compression that lead to connector rod damage, etc. and thus a destroyed engine......that is the worst case scenario! So I guess the question now is a new (rebuilt crate) engine or a new car. :?

    I had to let the computer cool down while I took a shower.

    Yeah, Merlin, I was surprised that the 2 guys I contacted couldn't help. They didn't want to wake up 20 minutes earlier to pick me up at 3:30 a.m.-ish.
