My plate is full, but if you have questions, feel free to call. Shoot me a pm and I'll give you my number.

Steve, I wish I could. We have our Marine Corps Ball on Friday evening. Do a few runs for us. I do have a question for you. When I sold that lid to you, was there an IAT sensor in it? And if so, do you have an extra. If not, I need to go buy one. And I hate going to the dealerships. Thanks.

No takers yet, been a few interested but no one serious. I need it sold before then end of the month to avoid another insurance payment so I'm open to offers.

fa19007, I may be able to help you depending on my schedule, if you have access to a lift it'll make it easier. A header install takes relatively little mechanical know-how. Its just time consuming and very frustrating sometimes. PM me later, I may to work next weekend but I'm not sure.

Oh and Ben, when are you gonna stop wasting money on those cars and start investing it in some real estate? The amount of money you have in those two drag cars, you could buy a decent sized family home by now.

Sweet Andrew! You will have plenty to do when you get back!

Well....if you find me a house that can run the 1/4, let me know! Since we bought our house here, it has sky rocketed! We are looking at maybe getting another one next year.

Ben, I can find you a house with enough property to build a 1/4 mile on. That would be 100x better . Start thinking sooner than later for another house if you plan on it; prices are back down to normal and the interest rate is still relatively low. Its starting to go up and will keep going up becuase of the inflation we've been having. Waiting another year could cost you a pretty penny in interest if things keep going the way they are.

Andrew, appreciate the car selling help. I'd go to Holt to watch but it's the g/f's parents Anniversary so I have to suffer through that dinner.

It's a powerbond pulley, but it is SFI certified. I have it and the belts, I guess I'll let them both go for 170. It's a little scratched up on the surface but otherwise perfect.

You can have the thermostat for 25 bucks since you're buying so much stuff from me.
