Thumbs up Dropped my stuff off at the machine shop.

Very impressed with this place, clean neet and the staff was very very nice.
they said between 2-3 weeks it will be 100%, then all i need to do is put it together and put it in the car.
my new headers and hell fire rings arnt here yet anyway so either way im stuck.
1 month i hope till go time.
im realy hoping to be done for the night race at ned on the 9th
i do have a b-day party that day, but i should be able to bounce around inbetween qual and the real race.
we'll see
