Yea the old man is pretty sharp, I could not have done this build without him. I am gaining on this one, after all of these years I can't shake the "while I'm here I might as well...." syndrome. I ended up re-routing a ton of wires, making some pieces to clean up under the hood, replacing some parts just because they were ugly, powdercoating about a million small pieces that typically don't get powdercoated, and buying a lot of crap I already had just to make it look better. Either way I am about a week from getting her finished and tuned up with the new cam. I will posted a video this weekend of the new sound once we get her dialed. Stay tuned

Hate on missed you Friday at RTTS. I had it on my notes to call you but I was in such a rush to see everything in one day I forgot. Big turnout, did you a car count for Saturday?

I feel your pain. I'm going to tear my truck apart in a bit to clean things up because I'm taking it to Carlisle in August. I'm trying to decide when enough is enough since I'll be building a crew next year.

Thank you sir, I wish I had an easy way to post a video. The best part is the new cam
