Kurt, You're making progress and 7s can't be far away. Is this a 4-link or stock chassis car?

You'll be fine, my gaskets have lived well past 30 psi, so far! They're GM MLS.

Should be fun racing you guy's at Thunder.

Kurt is at SEMA right now, and I don't think he is staying at our hotel. He is at the other one in Gonzalez. We should roll into the hotel about 3pm with a decent convoy from Dallas.
