OP - you have to see the humor in the title. Winterizing that car is no different than any other car or engine size.
What I did 2 years ago before it got really cold and this year again was take the car for a spin with a friend in it.
Proceed to drive the car like it ows you money and made fun of your mom. Watch the temp guage sky rocket as you spew coolant everywhere and watch your boost guage go limp d!ck as it drops from the headlift.
Pull over and think what a great $5000 motor that was, thanks Sleeves and GTM!
Then if you're close have 5 friends push your car over 1 mile on Christmas Eve thru your neighborhood to your house or drive 20 hours to go pick it up. When you get home, you dont have to do anything other than put your battery on a trickle charge because your car is a POS and it stored itself for the winter and maybe the rest of time....

and lulz at him saying that's the reason he's getting laid. I also like how the op hasn't returned to comment since then, but I suppose he's busy "getting *****"

To store my sleeved engine. i pulled it out of the car, put my car in my garage and took the engine to my local performance shop so they can look at the POS every day and I don't have get mad every time i look at the expensive paper weight. Turbonetics is likely the best kit for a sleeved engine....not enough boost to lift the heads.
