God, those look fantastic. If I didn't run 16" wheels at the track, I would be looking into those bad boys. Sorry about your luck...just keep thinking of the end result and it will be worth it!

Hell yeah!! I'll hopefully be dropping the engine in this weekend if I can get the brake issue sorted out during the work week. But regardless I wanna see what all the hubbub is about the 1900's...
Actually brian gave me a ride in his G8 and I was blown away by the top end on the new TVS's!! Very cool!!

Thanks man!! I've been wrenching for a while now just never on cars/trucks(Marine propulsion stuff mostly). This is my 3rd swap but first one unsupervised Hopefully I'll gain a little experience and not blow anything up that's too expensive or irreplaceable.
