I laugh every time I see our windshield washer resevoir... I was stunned the first time I saw one at a car show exposed like that... makes you wonder what a full one does to your balance on the track

night #2
Now we could be going alot faster, I'd say we have 7-8 real hours into this. As you can see I had to bring in some lame help cuz Kev did the PMI thing yesterday. And thanks for all the concern about safety, other then Kevin getting a "taste" of the 10K synthetic, We're being pretty good. And don't stuff about my Bartender Shan! She is a very important part of this build! We are not drinking building at the same time, It's how we kick back after a hard day of wrenchin!
Ok the "gashole" is stupid! The seal sux! The fuel pump disassembly to upgrade the pump took like 2 hours! Our 3rd day will hopefully be the better part of a day and we will finish, that's where the better pix will come from, when all the piping/intercooler goes in.

As far as the car falling, Kevin's gi-normous *** will protect him. He is normally the person under the car for this reason. Perhaps he should at least wrap a pillow around his head??

I want the Turbonetics kit so bad, but I don't have anywhere, or anyone to help with the install anymore. So I will have to pay some shop to install it for me.
