Im just getting started with car stuff, I'm still in school, and I hear that there's a whole cult following of 2.9 guys, and I'd like to learn a bit from them ?

Welcome. We have a couple members here who are known as the 2.9 mafia. They will certainly tuck you under their wing.

So sorry to hear that. Maybe your Dr. Can prescribe something to fix that.

I'm sure they will make room for one more in the infamous 2.9L Douche Canoe. I've heard that having a good line on bulk antifreeze and a blueprint for working free floating rockers... will get you a spot as MC at the quarterly 2.9L mafia circle jerk.

Northumberland might be far enough away that I can't hear the tapping.

No... I think I need to report myself. Do you think a 24 hour ban will be enough... or go for a week long ban?

Just drive a 3.0 with 3.23 gears for a week. There is your penance.

Ooh. That's harsh. Even I must admit that a 3.0 with 3.23 gears will not move under its own power.
Maybe on a steep downgrade.
