Been about 70 degrees around here, but our racing season just started and ends in october. Can't wait to see you get this up and going Phil. Time to put all your research and Shawn's engine expertise together to make it happen.

Last week when I posted about the heat.. it was in the mid 90's here in CT, and the humidity was retarded. My a/c unit looked like a damn garden hose, instead of a drain hose with the water it was pulling out of the air

It's nice now. Heat broke last Friday, now this week it's gonna be really nice, and I have to leave today on a business trip, and won't be back until Friday. I can't win LOL.

Aside from maybe 5 minutes of welding, I am at a standstill until I get the intake, fuel pump and distributor.

The crossover is done with the exception of 2 - 3/4" sections on the inside of each leg. Couldn't get in there with everything in place.

I have visited San Diego many times and love it. The weather is awesome. South Texas weather sucks. You have to drink alot more beer to stay hydrated.

At least you have an excuse! I'm going to see how many cans of beer it actually takes to build a car
