Congrats on the completion of a long and rewarding journey. Many of us are looking forward to the same day for our projects and can only hope they turn out half as nice as yours. I might be a little green with envy.

Congrats! That's really awesome that your mom got to see the finished product. I'm glad you were able to share it with her. Enjoy driving it!

Thank you sir. Just one of those things you really can’t put a price on.

That color combo is crazy!! Very nice. It's just goes together like peanut butter and jelly, like ham and eggs, like milk and cookies, you know...like gin and juice. Yep...all of that!!

Not really. It’s pretty much what I though it would be. Now two things I would have done would be to use a different transmission and go with a less aggressive cam. I can’t stand the lope of the hot cam ls3/480
