Sorry to hear it shaun but it is probably for the best. Time to sit down and get organized all good things come to those who wait. Or atleast thats what i keep telling myself

Your season may just be just be finishing but be happy you got in a season
Mine has been down and out for two seasons know hopefully i can make it out for next year but only time will tell.
Later
Mike

Yeah, she said she was a long ways away. I guess considering that she has only met you once and being a woman (not so good at making a decision... do you think she'll read this?), it took her a long time to figure out that it MIGHT be you. She largely goes my my accounts of you, or when I point your car out on the street, so she wasn't sure it was you. She didn't feel comfortable (a woman) stopping for a strange man (esp. in a TA ) so she was waiting till you got closer - I don't blame her with the psychos around.

Women shouldn't stop for men in f-bodies as a general rule...

It's the other way around. We stop for women (good looking) in our f-bodies.

Estimated cost, just a guess - $20,000

*just dreaming*
For much less than that we can get you ready for that first Road Race Shaun... then you can wow 'em at the track too!

i agree with Sideways, send it to a reputable shop in the states like nutek or something unless you wanted to send it back east to agostino i dont know what would be cheaper. good luckl either way. i have a feeling that price tag will grow quite a bit. cant wait to see it.

I wouldn't say you spared any expenses but my comment is more pointing towards not rushing the project. Make sure you got everything sorted out before pushing the car

Locally I say Richmond or High Performance Engines. but personally I would go with ARE. Better yet part out your current engine set-up and buy Craig's Motor, it is proven and bullet proof. Or get yourself a nice aftermarket block and go from there, you got enough free labour here to help you take things apart and together

I say get new slugs, I highly doubt that the machine work will be cheaper then some used slugs, remember machine work has to be done for 4 botl mains, clearancing if any was done etc...
