I'm at a dead stop. I just ordered the odyssey battery, kirkey seat, aluminum bumper support. And I'm flat broke. I don't even need too much stuff. Its a lot of money but with no work its tough.

I am surprised I am not in jail driving around with this much power.

I pulled a good one if front of CHP last saturday. Basically lost traction "AKA did a burnout at 50mph and hit 95 slowed quickly to 70. I see a CHP cruiser going in and out of traffic. I start pulling to the right lanes and he comes up next to me I mouth "I'm sorry" he tilts his head and takes off.

Got the trans and motor from the k member and tore down the shortblock. I found that the FAST bolts they give you for the valley cover strip out pretty easily, luckily HD had some low profile ones to replace the two that stripped out.

Tomorrow im pulling the a.i.r. pump out of the car(which I should have done when I put the headers in and bought race headers), and ill weld up the hole in the ends of the a.i.r. tubes that I cut off to make block off plates out of.Im thinking ill try to tackle the racetronix pump using the trap door method, that should be fun.
