**** John, That leaves me speechless. PM me your address. I can come grab you and drop you off. Unless someone else closer wants to do it, I don't mind at all.

ThaNKs all u guys are the best....just to give u guys an update the doctor is lead to believe that the tumor is not cancerous due to the fact that i was born with it....if this is true then i will probably be able to just take meds and live with it.

I had an eeg done to make sure i wont pass out again at the wheel so at the present i've been advised not to drive which is why i wasn't there today(dammit) but they're pretty sure by monday i will be cleared to drive.

In the time i haven't been able to drive has given me time to go over my car and look and see what else i need to do. Put in a front mount intercooler, new BOV, Cold air intake and an elecric fan.

Thaks all, esecially DAVE ur the best man

That was a fun time everyone. I think it is actually the first drive I have gone on with everyone. Other than going to Sam's house the first meet I made it to. Really put some miles on and tested a few cars along the way.

Andre, Hopefully you made it home OK and cool!

John, That is good news I suppose considering.Hopefully everything goes well and you can drive to the next meet. If for some reason things don't go that way just hit me up and I will grab you on the way to a meet. Good luck man

Josh,, Hell yeah brah!! bring that **** on!!Should be a good time. We can test fit everything next weekend or next Friday( my day off. And like I said, if we need to get a FD manifold set-up I can probably get on quickly from the FD project I am doing.

Anthony, I am going to grab a timing light from work tomorrow and check and set that for positive. Heading down tonight I think to check TPS voltages and set that.We'll get it smoothed out... without lighting me up again

That was a great meet. I wish I could have gotten there on time. Sorry I had to bail in the middle of the drive, I was pretty wrung out by then. Figured I better just head home.

I have some pics from the NC Rotaries bbq I'll post up later on.

Sorry I have'nt been able to make any meets yet. But I had a good reason had to drive to Jacksonville to pick up an S5 block from rotaryspitfire. He was giving it to me for free couldn't pass it up. He said the rear rotor is most likely shot. But hope to play and learn with it at the same time. Getting my n/a w/ pineapple large streetport project started. Does anybody have the tools to remove the flywheel?

Sorry to hear about the tumor DJ.

I'll have picks of the engine when I can remove the flywheel nut and open her up.

That is NOT an acceptable excuse!!! The appropriate response would have been I had to go to Jacksonville to pick up a S5 block for Dave!!! That i would accept as a excuse

I have the socket needed for the flywheel nut. As well I have the flywheel gear holder to stop rotation. The biggest thing that is a pain is that it is torqued on the mega tight( or should be at least) You almost definet;y need a impact gun. If you have a compressor I can bring my stuff. If not and you wanted to swing by my work with the block. I can zap the flywheel AND front hub bolt off.( the front bolt should be even tighter than the flywheel nut. Let me know what sounds good if you want to.

Dave
