Pretty sure there aren't many places that can balance inhouse. Most have to send it to Kittlers to have the parts balanced, then get the stuff back to assemble it.

I'm on 18's that are @ the wear bars, if I cant hope someone will let me make a pass on something with more sidewall. I don't have tires for the 15's yet, also I have to get the wheel studs in when I get the eaton rebuilt, still haven't desided on putting the 4:11's in.

I got called in to work, got to go in Friday. I don't know if I'm working days or nights, if days I can leave my car @ a buddys house and make it out, nights would be a no go.

No nitrous for me Friday. Don't have time to put it all together and tune it safely. May have it on the skreet Saturday. Put some 29.5/10s on the truck so its going to be a little slower than it should be but I can't find anything else to slap on it.

Track trip fizzles away as quick as it was put together......Maybe if shane shows up I can get a dig run with him. Mine will be as it sits in street trim, thats fair eh shane? Matter of fact I think I just about filled up the gas tank last time I drove it so I will be toting that extra weight along too 
Probably an ice chest, and some chairs in the back.......

I haven't really found the root cause of my oil pressure woes, but I think I'm on the right track. That being said, I think all the main and rod bearings are perfectly fine ie. None of them spun. The motor is as quiet as its ever been.
