Thanks Ron. So sorry it took me so long to get this build thread started. Hopefully I made up for it by being overly detailed. Anxiously looking forward to your next post to your thread. You've got to be getting close now.

Chris, yes!

Love your planning methods... and you don't follow down the paths of others unless you are convicted in it.... I can't always say that about myself and most others...

I definitely would tread lightly with that SS700 Keisler deal.... esp after the way the RS600 fiasco went.... but I know you are monitoring it.

Goal for timeframe for completion?

I'm passing the torch, buddy. You are methodical in your planning and execution. I'm really liking your decisions and sticking to your guns on what you want. That ZL-1 with injection is going to be sweet! I'll miss my engine more than anything when my car goes down the road.

I really hate to say it, but that car needs a mini tub. Those 275's don't have a chance in hell.

Strange question from our senor moderator.

Hey I am pretty sure I read you preaching setting goals in the Healthy 101 thread.... not transferable here?

Oh, and I am only Senior when compared to Spiffa.

No. This is C-Rob's thread and we've been waiting MONTHS for it...

We all have goals....but ours are to complete our cars this century

EDIT: Sorry Chris....couldn't help myself. I've read your thread a couple times now and love the direction of the car. Ain't nothin' wrong with stock sub and leaf springs. They are just as fun as any other set up you will ever drive.

Seeing my thread hijacked there for a moment by 'the boys' brought tears to my eyes. I've been waiting for that for so long. I'm official now. Damn that feels good. No, wait, Mr. Weld didn't join the party. Still not official yet.

Thanks Dave! Yes, it's great to finally post this darn thing and start contributing again to this website. Hope to have the remaining mods done by February/March. Things are moving at a good clip now. I hear ya on the SS700. I'm keeping my fingers crossed but staying realistic and keeping my options open as there are some great alternatives readily and locally available. I'm not going to hold up my build because of the tranny.

By the way, fark you and your new home with that rediculous driveway. Freakin' gorgeous, of course. Congrats on that. Hopefully Kandie and I can make our way up there some time soon and check out your new digs.

Thanks! I appreciate you mentioning that. I've thread through your build thread many times actually and it's helped me make some decisions on the path I'm going down now. So a big thanks for sharing your setup and experiences on the track.

Thanks Al. That's much appreciated. I sure as hell hope it feels different!

I'll gladly take that torch my friend, although it may not burn as brightly as it did in your hands, and kinda sorry you're handing it to me. Wish we coulda run the ZL's together at a few events. I'm sure your next build will be insane though, and I'll get as much inspiration from it as I got from Payback. Yah, the 275's in the rear are going to be way over-matched. If it becomes a real source of frustration, I'll consider the tubs. Or smaller injectors.
