Good to see Justin getting it done. I have some parts I'm giving him so I know he will get his 10sec pass soon. As soon as we are done putting mine together I'll help him out.

No it's time to pull weight out of it and leave at 6800 on the bottle.

Unless I win the lottery I doubt it. Go get your money right so we can start getting yours in the 10's. I dont think it will cost much to put in the cam and springs but since we are there you might want the pulley.

Yeah I think Michelle is going to get me the pulley and then maybe just go over your inventory of springs and retainers so I can start pricing things out. Just incase I need something stupid.
