That government for you and they just keep getting more powerful and they have the perfect timing as to when to hit you when it hurts the most. Been down that road before. Hope things turn around for you.

I am just getting caught up on some threads and havent gotten to look at the link you posted. My tooth hasnt healed up as well and wonder if what they are going to try on you is basically the same as they are going to try on me. They are going to try and move some fat from somewhere and use it to fill the hole. When I was younger, I thought I was undestructible and know a common injury can be a long term thing. Hope this experiment works for you.

I am way past beyond wanting winter to be over with.

yeah much as i like the cold an winter in general im getting tired of it

in my case this powder they put in the hole is supposed to pull stem cells from my blood (which we all have lesser as we grow older) an physically rough them up like the mob

"now yu'ins gona stay here right? yer gona's fix this mess like you'ns supposed to right or do i haz to be more convincing? again"

well the machine shop called head is all ready they wanted to know where i got it as it was heavier than any they've seen before at 15lbs the factory head is lighter

an the guy said was a breeze to fit the valves impressed with the intake an exhaust runners finish an the fact it didnt need any porting which all 22r(e/t) heads do around the valve stems to improve flow

he flat stated it's the best new head he'd ever seen for a 22re i told him id send the sellers name an contact email when kris picks up the head he then knocked the work price down to 100 even YAY discount! he was worried he'd lost my cam no ive got it here he WHEWed over the phone

now to go get my timing set 48bucks an head bolts WOOT

oh foot well after a week of the new stuff in the hole it actually worked color me amazed 1/3 smaller in depth an diameter in one week

i will not get my hopes up been smacked down too many times when its healed then! by gods MARK will hear me in calif when i yell out

new head is on its way home though they couldn't save any of the studs for the exhaust an intake from the old one

they were seized in the old head so bad they broke one trying to get it out so with a bit of advice help from Mark i got a set of LCE exhaust and intake studs to preserve my new head long as possible so only one bolt will be screwed into the head the long allen head one on the intake side the rest will all be studs should make the intake gasket install a breeze

also delivered today head bolts and steel rail timing set (PO shattered the crank gear so had to replace the whole thing)
still need to get a key for the crankshaft
also coming o-ring an strainer set for my injectors (19 bucks) as i need to clean the lower intake half with the injectors in it theyve been open to the air the o-rings likely old as the truck not gona risk having fuel/air leaks at them for want of a good bit of rubber

Lesson I learned the hardway is to lube them o-rings when installing them. It has the possibility of getting a knick in them and leaking.

How is the foot coming along? I had dental surgery again today. Maybe this time will work for the both of us. Having things that dont heal gets old.

yep now did ya use oil or a few drops of gas to lube um?

i hope so that powder seems to be helping i say seems as its hard to say till its healed up last dr visit the hole an tunnel under the skin had shrunk by 1/3rd so it worked after 6 days this next visit will be wed
the nurse will come with the medical rep to do my foot again the procedure at the docs office was they put the powder in then a square of the same material with more powder in it as a plug of sorts then the wound vac on top to pull body fluids into it which draws the stem cells to the wound forcing the stem cells to close the hole

i hope your tooth hole closes soon terry

The FSM says to use gasoline, but I have used WD-40. Didnt have a drop of gas in any of my cans anywhere. I too hope this is my last surgery, I was feeling some serious pain earlier today.

How is your foot doing know? Having any luck with it? On my surgery, he sewed my cheek to my gum. It is supposed to put some fat into the socket and use it as filler material. Who would ever thought something so simple as what our problems started out being would take so long to heal. This getting old is for the birds. Makes you wonder how you survived to this long. I remember when I thought I was nearly bullet proof and the doctor could always fix me back up. What was I thinking??

its a tiny bit better but not enough to even get a yay 2weeks plus a few days to see the doctor again the home health care nurses are coming M/w/f to change the wound vac as a week was way too long it was causing too much moisture under the plastic seal drape which to describe it think soaking in the tub too long an go further issue many shipwrecked sailors suffered with

havent done nothing really other than buy parts for the runner several boxes right here in front of me next to my wound vac stuff and computer
