Default Well finally...

After a tough last year at my business, and two failed attempts at hiring good accountants and thinking I would have to sell my car to keep it (the business) afloat...everything has turned around for the better and I was able to make an appointment to get my car finished. Tim at V and P racing in KC, KS will be finishing up what I can't because of time restraints...my baby boy was born at 0058 Wednesday 3-9-11 morning, 21 1/2 inches long and 7 lbs 6 oz.

I'm looking forward to having his professional touch put on the car, and he was actually referred to me by member Ponyhntr on here.

I have a few things I need to buy before taking the car to him in early April. The car has P&P stock heads, .601 .610 cam, unsure of duration etc, LS6 intake, full stainless exhaust, and we are adding a D1SC procharger at about 7-8 psi with a FMIC. I need a FPR (boost referenced), I'm not too concerned with price, so any recommendations would help. Also, I'm looking for a 6 rib crank pulley, used or new. I had a deal with a gentlemen to trade out my 8 rib for his 6 rib...you know how that **** goes. I am going to go with a 3.7" pulley, if anyone has one and/or a belt to go with it that pretty much gets me everything I need, besides some stainless hose for fuel delivery and return...or if you have anything you think I might need chime in, I have cash on hand. Also, I'd like to go with a dual fuel pump setup, tell me what you have.

Really looking foward to getting this thing done, hitting the local strip, and carshows with my future father-in-law and his decked out '56 Nomad. I bought this car after my first tour in Iraq in the Marines, a lot of sentimentel value there.

I'll keep an update on the car when it's delivered. Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions you might have.
