I gotta disagree with some of ya here...
Right now I'm in the best relationship of my life, and she could give a **** about my cars. She likes the Firehawk- cause it's red. I don't think I want a girl that's into cars (no offense obseSSed, you look hot and sound cool as hell) but this is my time. My time to do what I want, how I want. I don't want her to love or hate the cars, just understand how much I enjoy them and why I like them. And not get pissed when we have old *** furniture but brand new wheels!
That make any sense?

cars = your "escape" more or less. Something that you can do by yourself without having someone tell you to do this different etc etc...i understand

Exactly, sometimes you just want to **** around in the garage or put that 1200th coat of wax on by yourself. I have to keep myself in check cause it's really easy to find yourself working on the car all weekend and not paying any attention to your chick or guy.

Brad (viperkiller) and Vince (97Z-M6) are badasses! They got my Vig 2800 stall out this afternoon and my stock stall back in...we didn't bother to bolt the transmission back up since it's coming out for the T56 here pretty soon...
Also got a pair of O2's finally hooked up, so Vince was able to do some minor programming with spark advance, idle, etc.
Thanks again guys...

Hey Brad, in that PM you sent me awhile back you were describing the 383 from Ledford's as being good up to 800hp at the crank...I'm assuming that was for the fully forged internals. Do you happen to remember what the hp rating at the crank was for the hypertectic 383?
I tried to PM this to you but your box is full...again...
