this weekend i will not be able to work on it because we are moving some stuff to AL. i probably wont be able to work on it much during the week b/c of tests. but hopefully it will be finished and running in the next couple of weeks. but the real goal is to have it running before i have to move it to AL in Dec.... and im going to beat kyle

This is the kind of project that "separates the men from the boys". Great job. Def. some skills here, gotta know your way around a car, big props! I hope the numbers and driving experience will be worth the effort you have put into this for you. I would love to see a video of the first fire! Always a good feeling when that fresh build fires up!

Great progress!
