I am in Schweinfurt. Engine is blown though. #4 piston is gone and there looks to be an excess of ring end gap. Thinking about shipping the short block back to Scoggin' Dickey and have them do a rebuild. Huge pain in my ***.

I actually got the car over here and the previous owner already had the 12 bolt put in prior to shipping the car over here. Before I totaled my SS, I had inquired with Vengeance and if I remember correctly it would have been like 700-1g to have a 12 bolt shipped over here. They said they would have to send it to the nearest airport on a pallet and I'd have to pick it up. There has to be another way but that's what they told me. I also bought some ARH LTs from them last year and it was like 1400 shipped.

Going back to Stewart and I'm actually excited. I love that area in the south and FLA is right there.

1400 was only about 100 bucks for shipping. I had gotten the race 1 7/8s and ORY since I took off all the emissions crap. The Hookers coating have just about had it. Looking foward to getting out of the cold.

If you saw what my Hookers look like, you'd seriously consider going stainless. But then again TSP's and others seem like good value for the money so benifits go both ways.
If you guys up in Graf are doing some kind of meet I might have to drive up there before I leave and see some REAL cars lol.

yup, contact texas speed, thats who my buddy got his kooks shipped through. make sure they know to ship them usps. due to the size restrictions would probably have to be in a separate box for each header. i just got my strano sway bars in today and that box is huge.

we usually coordinate with the mustang guys and do something once every couple of months in the winter, as spring approaches, racewars and bitburg and usually a trip to the ring. i'll keep everything posted in this thread or get my website changed over for us when i have some time.
Shoot me a PM in advance if theres a meet going on so i can make plans to make it.
