BUCK:

My MTI 427 Ironblock should also be done early to mid next week and if you get yours back next week also, looks like we will both be getting our MONSTER A4 C5s back at about the same time. ITS GETTING REALY EXCITING RIGHT ABOUT NOW! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[gruffy cottonball]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_gruffy.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[gruffy cottonball]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_gruffy.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" />

Lyle it ain't that hard to throw a new fuel pump in. Get that thing on get some track time. Driving your car at the track is a completely different ball game. Now you have to learn how to launch and get that car to hook.

I think I'm going with the same verter as you a Vig 3600 and Joe Prince recommended the #7 pump and says it will have excellent street manners.

I can't wait. My goal is to go as deep into the 11's as I can before I start doing heads or forced induction.

I pick up my 02 SOM A4 SS March 11 I can't wait! <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />

Jim
I am so freakin excited I can't take it anymore. I'm hoping for next week but to be honest if it takes a bit longer, no biggie. The weather SUCKS here and I can't really drive the car anyway. Also, I've been able to park my truck (daily driver) in the garage the past few weeks and here in Buffalo that is a good thing LOL. My wife on the other hand wouldn't mind getting my truck out of the garage. It takes up quite a bit more than the Vette. We have a 2 1/2 car garage now but our next house will have at least a 4 car garage LOL (I can dream , right?). I know Wade and crew will get my car perfect. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I have to wait for a clear day anyway to pick it up. Hell a few weeks ago I couldn't get down my street LOL. I know what you are feeling. You must be so pumped about your car. Keep me posted. </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Originally posted by MTI 427 C5 Roadster:
