Import Day at Edgewater is this Sunday, anyone here going? I'll be shooting for mid 13s at 8psi on street tires in the ACR.

I'm gonna try and make it by 10:00 so I can get some practice runs in. Still trying to get used to launching the new setup and keeping off of my now lower rev limiter.

Yeah I think it's running fine, despite the fact that my oil feed came off dumping about 4 quarts of oil (yes four) all over my engine and the roadway while sitting in front of Jewish Hospital the other night. Doh!

The clamps loosened or something, that end was double-clamped too. Looking into switching it over to AN fittings.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to run. It's smoking, most likely due to PCV issues, not sure if I will be able to work it out tonight or not since I had a stereo install that kept me busy all afternoon.

As soon as I got all my problems sorted out it killed a rod bearing. I can't afford a new bottom end so stay tuned for my massive part-out post.

I don't know if I want to go through the hassle and spend all that money that I will never get back out of it. I think I'm going to start building a pro-touring/track slut early A-body. With the older shit you don't lose as much money when you eventually go to sell.
