Soo bad. 
Game over....
I think my biggest f***-up last year was after I swapped on the Patriot Gold Duals. I got so excited to fire it up, I forgot to connect the driver's side coil packs. It ran amazingly smooth for 2 minutes and I couldn't figure out why it was idling without that much cam lope. I thought, "Damn! These springs really are better than the Manley's that I just pulled." Then, I start double checking and see the main connector for the driver's side coils disconnected. I plug it in and what do you know...the car starts loping like it should. Needless to say, I immediately felt like a jackass.
Best of luck with getting a new setup together.

Man that sucks. I can feel your pain. My Z28s been down for 6 weeks now with a spun bearing waiting on parts to be shipped out. I hope you got a friend with a fast ride cause you start getting the shakes after 4 weeks.

Man, I couldn't agree with you more on that statement. I finally got mine together last weekend after it being down over a month due to a broken head.
The last couple weeks I was getting jittery and irritable...haha...
Mike94...best of luck to you man... I know how it is...but, on the bright side it's a good reason to go bigger and stronger!

I have learned to lay everything out in plain site and stop every once in a while to take stock of what I have - be sure that everything that's left is part of the job ahead, not what's already been done.
