A couple of shots of the honeycomb from my 89 300e. The result of major oil consumption from valve guides/seals and rich fuel distribution.

Aww poor thing.

Actually I don't plan on using that one. I found this aftermarket one that I think will work fine.

I'd hate to see the mice that thing likes to go after.

Holy %&^^&# - where did you find that cat - TEXAS? Would love to see the look on the face of a dog that encounters that guy! I'd say back off on the growth hormones or buy a saddle in a few months! Hate to dig in your flower gardens! LOL - hope it is a modified pix - if not - contact the cat food companies - that guy is great for commercials! :p :p :p

"that guy is great for commercials! " - just to clarify - I meant the cat - not you!! still lol!!!

LOL! It's *that* cat picture again! Cracks me up everytime.

WOW! Man take that back to the animal shelter and get your money back I think they sold you an albino Cougar!

The zoo called. They want their snow leapard back right now.
