hope you dont mind me saying so This guy is 1st class all the way. Awhile back in my 10sec thread i mentioned i was still running a stock t5 shifter in a 10 second fox body....he laughed and offered to ship me a hurst short throw. I pm'ed him asking how much he wanted. He responded back by just saying "give me your address and ill ship it to you for free" I couldnt believe my ears! Well today i got the shifter and it barely looks used!!!! I just think its amazing that there still are good people out there! THANKS MAN!

Most of you guys that i have sent stuff to might not realize it, but you guys have helped me in one way or another with my carb swap, and im more than happy to return the favor when i can.

I might not have all of the technical knowledge that you guys do, but when i have spare parts and someone needs them, im quick to swap parts for info

I am a little surprised in only a 2 mph difference on the sauce. I run that mph on juice in the 1/8th mile with 2 tenth of a second worst on the first 60 feet. which factors in to my 1/8 mile time best of 7.2 I think. But I can get nowhere near your 1/4 mile mph thats just sick. Congrats again man. I have a new bar I'll be gunning for. All I want to do is run it once and get booted of the track for failure to meet NHRA rules for the speed. hehe.

Last year i was ill, i had lost both my kidneys at a college party. I woke up in a tub of ice bleeding with a cell phone and a sign that said if i wanted to live i should call 911. Wouldn't you know it, 2 days later FBD mailed me BOTH of his kidneys and a note that said 'take good care of'em buddy' and a little smiley face next to it.
