Just buy me a plane ticket and I will finish it for you, seriously. I want this thing making good numbers on the dyno by the end of next week, no excuses.

Just a little something that's been going on with the car. I picked up a good core yesterday and have new parts ordered for it. Once those come in we'll get that short block together and hopefully get back to the car itself!! Race season is coming up fast and this year we should be ready, well, I hope so at least.

Last week there was quite a bit of progress on the car. I was going to finnish it up on Wed. but my Grandfather passed away so I had to fly down to Los Angles (Im in WA). It will be back up and running when I get back on the 26th-27th. Also my new shortblock will be done soon and I should see the new head in about 3-4 weeks.

I am looking forward to your dyno results! Good luck!

BTW, the car is looking great! Also, sorry to hear about losing the slicks on the dyno, I learned the hard way as well.... I run my Falken Azenis 245/40/R17's for dyno-time. Unfortunately, I am notorious for blowing race transmissions on the dyno as well. 3 last year alone! I guess that they don't like 700+TQ @ the wheels under load!

Good luck, and keep safe!
