I'll probably be able to make this as long as it's fairly close. Columbia or higher gets my vote.

Yep, that was me. You must've been the guy with the LS1 FC who had just gotten done sanding all his paint off? How'd that work out for you? My car's a tad different since then, I got rid of that ugly job and added on a few things.

all our cars have just as much chance (if not more) at breaking down than yours.. plus you have all us rotorheads as tech support if it does. although yours doesnt have much of a track record for reliablity so far, lol. im sure all the kinks are worked out by now


Ill be there in the TII. i sold my n/a yesterday to someone local who needed the drivetrain for a rotary swap (from what he told me, very cool project!), so hopefully it will live on heheh

Thanks all. Those signals are actually factory for '99+ so I didn't have to do anything extra to them. Does anyone have any more ideas for where we could have the meet?

Ya, pretty sexy now.

And yes, I blocked the paint down, buffed the crap out of it, then put on another gallon of clear. Here it is before the last gallon.


I need to clip the paint down again, but need to do some touch ups first. After you rode it in it, it put down 342hp/322tq. I put a new top end on my car since then, new ported heads, valvetrain, ported throttle body, ported MAS. Put down 410/399 at the dyno. It'll scare the **** out of you.

I'm the one doing the FC for Sam too. I painted the engine bay yesterday and the engine and tranny went in today.

I won't tell Reese, but you have to tell Reese to call me. I've got a driveshaft question for him and no way to contact. I don't know his screen name here and I've heard he doesn't frequent the forum anyway.

tray, i told you im down so if its a no go on this... you and i will go hit up some runs on a sunday morning in the AM.

oh and the dvd has new music in it and i agree w/ masin... tv on the radio is a good fit for the opening to halfway through. i will burn the final copies for those who want one.
