If I could only charge a penny...

See that "Find Third Gen Performance Parts" banner ad on the top of the page there? I'm very sure that car on the LEFT is mine. If I could only get a penny for every time the ad was loaded... I could afford an oil change.

I pick it up sometime this week... It's almost finished. I feel like a kid on Christmas! We need to get together so we can square up with those LCA's and I can hear your Z fire.

Got it running yet? Planning on Sac in April?

I did. With an inheritance, tax return, bonus, and sabbatical payout I'm just stupid with cash.

Sounds like with what you must be paying that shop you might have been able to get a nice set of after market cylinder heads. And you were worried about a day to two down time...
