The el camino is running very good, we had practice today for our Sonoma even on Saturday. On the first run out he looked great, really liking the power. On the second run the power steering pump shattered, with enough force to dent the hood in a couple of spots - knocking the paint off. It looks like we had the power steering pump spaced out incorrectly. We made a mad dash and found a new power steering pump. In the morning we are going to find a new pulley. If we can't find a pulley, i may have to take one off of my 2000 silverado (our pit vehicle).
we get more practice in the morning, and hopefully we can get some good runs in
