Rick at PR Motorsports even called again to confirm that it was done and ready to go.

I got a ride up from a coworker in his 2001 Miata that he just got recently. It's very similar, in all, just some refinements after a couple of years. The cup holders are still in the way of shifting, though. But even the CD player is basically the same (Bose model).

Anyway, the car was sitting out front all ready for me. He showed me the engine block that used to be in the car. It had 5 or 6 holes in it (see crappy camera phone picture).

After about 1/2 hour talking with him I was on my way.

OMG! It's so different than driving the Jeep! It sounds a little different than it did, I think. It's been a while, though, so I can't really tell.

I have to change the oil after 25-50 miles to a non-synthetic type. Then again I need to change at 1,000 miles but at that point, I can use synthetic again. It's at just over 70 miles, so I have to get it changed today. ;)
