Cool Dustin! I guess this coming weekend is too short of notice? I only have one more weekend to finish my car before M.M. I didn't get much accomplished this past weekend, buddy and his family were in town. I just hope the rain bypasses us this week...

I just checked VP's website and it says... "Keep it in a sealed VP drum and it will stay good indefinitely."
I might go get another 15 gal drum use a little and keep the rest for next season.

Cool, thanks Mike. Will your wife and baby girl be home? If so I was thinking about asking Denise and Gloria to come and maybe they can play together while we work.

I might just hold off till another weekend. I still have to install and do a break-in on the new clutch so I will probably just complete that.

There are several headlight conversions for the fc. A couple of guys on the 2nd gen forum have done several. There is also the FC2000 bumper from shine. Mine will be here on the 20th if you want to come by and check it out. It does away with the pop ups and has dual slots for 90mm round hellas. Which clutch did you get john?

I ended up getting the SPEC stage 2+!! They were having a sale and free shipping so all in all I paid 350 for it. Hopefully I'm goin to install it this weekend. And maybe have the car up an running nxt week. I would love to get rid of the pop ups or at least get rid of the sealed beam lights!

Yes, got the tranny, PPF, and clutch removed. Flywheel is in excellent condition. Just need to hit it with a little sandpaper. Clutch disc looks like crap. Chunks of it are missing, not around the edges, but the inner surface of it. Hope to have it back together end of this week.
