Hopefully they are the correct parts. You said get the 1 BAR spring right (14.7 psi)

Yes, but I did promise that it would only make one good pull, then your on your own.

More better, camera worky now. :chacha:

Mario, think that's the best location for the BOV. EASILY seen without being overbearing...you have a few hours to yea, or nay until I put it on. I have some other things I can do first.

Yes, but everyone wants their cake, and eat it,too. It's the only way to get around the sway bar, while keeping P/S. It looks low, and is, but I've never hit my Down pipe and neither has Rich. It is in front of the tire centerline. So it will be over a bump and way out of danger when the tire passes over it. At its lowest point, it's just infront of the tire centerline, and goes up the farther away it goes. Anybody acting enough of a fool can hit it, but you'll drag long tube headers long before this.

i just want to tell you that is the most beautifull thing i have ever seen, i am sitting here on my couch with my room mate and his girlfriend watching tv and i go OH MY GOD THAT IS SEXY.....they both kinda looked at me like...umm whatch ya looking up there...my roomate knew it was cars but i think might have freaked out his girl a little haha but anyways that is amazing work and i wish i had enough money so i could have you do this haha congrats on the work tho and i will look forward to more updates, oh yes and how is the shop going if you dont mind me asking?

Hey thanx a lot man. She needs a few more things. Put the oil pan back, and run a little more down pipe, and paint the headers now that everything is fit.
In the past week and a half things have really picked up. We now even booking cars a few days out because we are backed up. So we are pretty excited, so far so good.

Shouldn't be a problem, but you Murphy. I'm really tryin to fire it today, and take it to a show. It's the last day already for some reason. They usually go longer, but thye are cutting it short this year for some reason. It'll be going open DP if it goes. Not gonna have the time to get it all done today. But loud cars draw attention.

let me know how loud it is

did you figure something out for the alternator???(batteries are probably way dead too, might also be a little low on gas)

haha funny thing is my girlfriend always offers me money but i wont take it from her lol me being 19 and her 18 kinda makes it as though both us need the money but she is an amazing girl for sure but good to hear about the shop, if i ever am headed around there i might just have to stop in and check it out if it worked for you...not saying i would be around anytime soon just a thought, but again i am glad to hear about your shop is getting busy to where your backed up ..that is definatly a good thing, keep us up on the pictures
