2017 has been a busy year for me and the car. I rebuilt the motor, went to a 2.1 kenne bell, she sub frame, new wheels, coil over suspension and a bunch of other stuff but those are the high points. however I still have to.....
1. Check duel pump wiring and install kenne bell boost a pump
2. purchase drag slicks and mount
3. install tach signal trigger for 2 step
4. reset tach shift light
5. add new trunk lid and spoiler re wire cut off switch.
6. wash it and load it!

For the first time since I've been attending the shootout I feel somewhat ready lol

if that is all I would be happy.

I still have a lot of parts that still need to find their way to my house...lol. I got a three car garage with one car on the lift and parts everywhere.. I spent most of tonight working on the engine tie downs to try to keep this thing where it belongs... The good part is I think I do have all the wiring done, or at least for all the stuff I already have.... someone has already renamed this car as "The Money Pit" Rich

Well then get 're done Mr. Mike! We need to see that car again. Unlike some past years, I don't think you get to cruise past the competition anymore. There are definitely a few cars out there that will make you work. ;)

I know the feeling........like you I've been driving the new toy, you your bike and me my Jeep................:rolleyes:

Keith,

You really need to try and make it this year (15th Anniversary). It looks like we are going to have a lot of the fastest cars attending and I haven't seen yours since installing the 2.3 Whipple.
