And it drags on...
My paid leave, pending conclusion of HR's investigation into what must number a dozen complaints, has been extended until next Thursday. I'm not sure it'll be done by then...
I've had an ace up my sleeve through this whole things and been a step ahead of the evil woman. She's made some pretty ridiculous claims, lacked consistency and just been generally malicious towards me.
I found out today, that after some correspondence with the HR director, she's decided to retain an attorney. It appears they're really trying to pull the wool over her eyes, a fate I avoided. I'm not sure she even realizes her job is in jeopardy. She actually thinks that the HR director is 'on her side'

Nope. I just had a ****ty week. Lost about $400, part of that was gas that was pumped directly onto the pavement and not into my car.

Morning boys

On the prowl for a new set of pistons...
Porsche sells them only as a set WITH the cilinders... Ouch!

If I have no other way than to buy pistons and cilinders together, I am going 3.4 as my original plans were.


Stijn,

I asked advice from a mechanic before beadblasting the piston domes and bottoms. (not the sides)
He said to go ahead, gently and don't do the sides.....
One mechanic I won't be going back to....
Now I'm looking at a set of P and C's on Kapaza. (FG Porsche) 1500 bucks for 'high pressure' pistons. (shaped differently than Motronic pistons)
Not sure how much they will raise the CR of 10.3:1. Not sure if that would be a good thing....

Cant see why 10.5 CR will hurt.
