my dad keeps trying to convince me to sell both trucks and get a 69 kit car. my delimma is i told myself i would NEVER buy a toy on credit after the RZR. the s10 is being slowed down because i keep trying to nail the principle on the RZR when the monthly notes come around.

Good for you!!! Its hard to enjoy something when you get a constant reminder that its not Yours.

Good Luck!!! I hope he realizes it would be better served and at least he could enjoy seeing you enjoy it.

trans brake should have shipped out todday. then it will go to our drivetrain mod and transmission yoda Vince. havent decided on which converter i will go with yet. most likely circle d single disk 5c 4,500 since they are local to me and chris has been awesome to me in the past.

dont get our trans-brakes mixed up

i worked out a deal tonight on some TEA CNC Trick-Flow 225 heads. 61cc chambers should put me a little over 11.7:1 compression. the plan is to send the intake out to be port matched to the heads, then send it to cold fusion for a spray bar to be installed
