My new engine is in
« on: August 08, 2010, 06:51:34 am »
I'm sitting in the Hospital i got something in my eye so I'm not really looking forward for what my eye will be going threw. Thought I'd post up a pic of my new engine in my car, just put it in there yesterday, can't wait to start it up, I've been without my eclipse for close to a year, I just need to figure out how i'm going to mount my battery

Suuuwwhheeeettt engine bay Michel!  Hey what happened to your eye?  Penetrating object injury?  You must have had surgery to be in the hospital overnight to remove object/repair damage... I had 2 eye surgerys this winter for retina tear/detachment, no external trauma.  Well, they fixed my retina, but my optic nerve said " whoa man I can't take all this messin around in here" and took a permanent vacation.  So I'm pretty much a one eyed man now with imprecise depth perception, but still driving and working (whew).  Sucks but life could be worse...   Sorry for the stray off topic.  Just thought this was an opportunity to support you in a tough time.

What battery? 680? If so I have a mount for it for sale

Then google.
Then read old postings about it.
Then ask.

I had to go to the hospital 3 times the first 2 times they could not even give me the time of day saying nothing is in my eye... And the last time they found something under my eye lid so it had to be cut out, my eye is slowly getting better now.

Glad your eye injury wasn't too serious and is now getting better.  Must have been a pretty small particle embedded for you to feel it but them not see it.  Did you see an opthalmologist, a vitreoretinal surgeon, or a emerg. physician?  My surgeon keeps raving about an assistant professor at UBC, Dr. Dave something, best in BC...
