The down side of a new metric / standard car is the addition of the extra tools in the trailer. Don't forget the VO Meter, test light, soldering gun and rosin core solder, connectors, and picks. And the most important tool, the wiring diagram.

I think I'm ready

Most important thing is a laptop, lol.

I can definitely identify with the bandaids, young whippersnappers have no idea how thin your skin gets as you “mature”. I can hardly put gas in the car without bruising and/or bleeding. Swapping converters requires a transfusion....well, maybe not that bad but I definitely take a box of bandaids to the track and there’s a big box in the garage. Look forward to seeing the car soon, hope the testing goes well.

Jim after being in business for years I'm pretty thick skinned, but old scar tissue is no match for razor sharp edges of plastic and steel. Testing this past weekend didn't go well.

Today is new and Dumbo is being fitted for new pipes, life is good.

Larry,

Are you coming to Tulsa?

Atlanta or Tulsa will depend on the weather. It will be a little farther to Tulsa from Ohio than Commerce Ga.

Yes but in Tulsa you don't have to drive through Atlanta!

I have to fix engine before I go anywhere. I'm so tired of all this crap that is poorly made at a high cost. A loose cam basket on the cam gear what a pos. Thank goodness the FAST system would not allow it to restart after the run. The cam signal was lost.
