Cool, not trying to steal the thread here, but I will be in San Antonio tomorrow too. I'm gettin my torque conveter, shift kit, vette servo, and a few other hard parts in the trans installed. And then Allen is supposed to meet up with me afterwards for a little Street Tuning and removing the rest of the torque management and all. I know I will enjoy the drive back to Houston.

Congrats on the run in with the vette though.
