Scott. I'm surprised this wasn't anticipated. You're going to rock when it's all done!

Hang in there Scott, this type of build will have its hurdles, pioneering and engineering... not an easy task.

Thanks, guys. It's all good.

I definitely wish I had the car..but I'd MUCH rather have it right, than early. Of course, Todd feels the same.

Thats the truth! Like Kevin said, We will have our issues as well! These builds are time consuming & everthing needs to come together. Just be patient......tom

Mark, sh!t happens! We have to accept it & continue fighting. We all have different Ideas & approaches, but in the end we are here to help each other :)

everbody knows that instant gratification is much better in the long run. Tell them to get it on the trailer tomorrow.

Car is looking ridiculous, Scott. Must be killing you waiting for it.

Mark, didn't Todd create that "tounge and groove" kind of seal between your heads and case? What the hell is that process called again????

Scott, I have thoroughly enjoyed the pictoral and substance of your posts during this journey of yours. All good things come to those that wait.. It is better to have happened on the Dyno then at the track.. Great job and thank you so much for sharing. Very educational and exciting.. Best Regards, Kenny.

Same here, but I don't think that's the issue. Regardless, it'll all be taken care of soon enough.
