Hey Mike,
Dropped my car off at forged on saturday to get some minor stuff done to it (tires, camber arms, general once over, etc.).
Your stroker motor is looking good. Just like everything "Sharif" they are measuring three times and adjusting and installing only once from the looks of it. That car is going to be awesome to see and ride in. Looked like they were prepping the motor to go in soon. It was even over there in the general vicinity of your car
They must have moved the recently built motor from the engine shed out back. 
I took a few pics on my blackberry, but by the time I arrived at Forged I was on my 3rd monster energy drink and you know as a certified doctor what those things do to my existing type A nervous condition,... err so the pics suck.
Car Looks good. Going to be really loud though, really loud. Raj is going to need ear plugs running next to you at the 2010 Hendersonville airstrip ZdayZ!

Thats good to hear..
As far as Raj....He needs to be afraid...really afraid
I have ordered the traction control for the car....they take longer than i though to ship.....also, we will know for sure what the limits of the triple disc Carbonetics is
....I am told I may have to switch to OS....I am not looking forward to that

I saw a 370Z at GTM...When you start it up...the turbo's start to spool....that car sounded badazz...I have a video of it...but I dont know if Sam will allow me to post it. I will email it to George or Sam and have them post it if they want.....Its weird standing infront of a car with the hood up and hearing the turbo's spinning like that...sweeeeet.

I would hate to give up the Carbonetic.....I love the way it feels
.....I am hoping it will hold up....
I was told about that.....I told Sharif to keep going until it slips...this will be a street driven car...I really dont want to keep stalling on the road with a clutch that is only good for grabbing at 1000+ whp. I may just install one that will max out the turbo and then remove it later
