hey Vince, thanks.

Gaetano, the only thing left is EVERYTHING

Evil Genius needs to do the 3-link and finish hanging the pedals. after that I can get it back and start prepping it for paint.

I've figured out whose going to build the motor. need to pull the trigger on that soon but it's a big check

I need someone to buy my damn z06

I know what you mean, hope it sells soon. I'd like to sell my boat but the economy is narrowing down perspective buyers. I haven't even bothered throwing it on the market.

Looks great man, just keep on it and it will be done in no time.

Good choice on speed-o-motive, I know a couple of guys, one with a blown small block and had nothing bad to say about them.

Congrats on selling the Z06 Asif. Is the power to weight ratio in American Iron still 9.5:1?
