You know it. Our track is opening this weekend so as long as the car is running i'll be making passes up here before the shootout. Neal, are you coming to the shootout?

Un-fotunately it now does not look like I can make it to the shootout. The car will be ready but the economy has dumped and the funds just are not there to make it.

You guys better have a good time!

Mcleod doesn't offer a lt1 scatter shield yet, so i swapped the clutch , front case of the trany and the imput shaft, and slave cylinder, that way i can protect my feet.

Nice.

When I lived in Killeen, 3 of us in the F-body club lived on consecutive streets in the neighborhood. It got so that the UPS man would narc on each of us to the others on what parts he dropped off.

Kyle, I just had a pair of tires delivered to the office. They had gotten used to boxes of car parts, but the tires raised it to a whole new level.

roadtrip, good luck getting it all together. See ya next month.

You are officially the LT1 God! I should go to Kansas, watch you run and win, and then just drive back home satisfied!
