Seriously though I got to give you some props on this write up, can't wait to get up that to run with you guys on the street/strip some day.

only thing is you have to put the oil sensor and fuel system harness back on it. it's not that hard though.

imma prolly get the tranny installed after work sometime this week, then i have to modify the transmission mount. i also have to get that conversion u-joint damnit, i knew i forgot something.
