Default One more item Ellis

When you get the car apart, I want to get the drive shaft re-balanced. It has a bit of a vibration at 65mph that wasn't there when I had Boyce's carbon fiber DS in the car. So let me know & I'll come get it & drop it off at Drivelines NW in Evt - unless you have a better idea.

Hahaha, I sure do love it! I drove it a little bit today and Wow! What a lucky guy to own a car like that!

It drives so different from mine, has a bit more power, but yet they are a lot alike. I was and still am in Awe! It feels totally like a hot rod, looks Fantastic and sounds Great to boot! I totally love that!

Is that all it was? Glad you found it before I spit the DS out @ the track.

And I'm glad you like our car Steph! It's a lot like yours, only a half-step above maybe. I am trying very hard to make it look, sound, drive & run like a vintage muscle car. Only with comfortable seats & good gas mileage. There are some minor things about the setup I don't love, but all-in-all I'm happy with where it's at & where its' going.

And feel free to loose some rubber on the roads. That's what the car is made for. And built to take! But if you put my baby in the ditch, you may want to move to Guam, or Pluto, before you call & tell me.

Don't worry Mark, I wouldn't do any burnouts in your car, hell I won't even do that to my own car! I love it too much to abuse it. And your a lot like me! I wanted mine to sound like a vintage muscle car! Everyone says it has that vintage sound and I just LOVE it! Turns heads everywhere I go! Ya just can't beat that Rumble/Growl these cars get!

Let me know when you want me to come out & talk details & bring you another bucket of dineros Ellis. And since I haven't decided exactly how I'm going to do the diff sensor (I guess I should ask Dan how he'd do it), so I'm going to wait to plug them all in till I get the car home. But please put the sensor that I left in the trunk into the tranny pressure port. I kept them all in their original boxes in case the 300* eng oil tmep senor was different. (I didn't see any #s on them)

No problems. So far every thing has been straight forward just as we had talked. I had a few parts that did not show up yesterday. They should be in today I have a box of left overs

Leftovers?! Er, um, how much more will it cost to have those installed?

And I've been thinking about that intake on YOUR car. I need to get Todd to drive his car out there so you can look / listen to his motor & we 3 can talk about what to do with that to pimp it out. An LT1 motor has SO much show potential.
