On a side note I wish Nissan would do their HP ratings on the wheel HP ratings rather than crank...

That's not true. Chevy's website rated Z06 at 505 but graph shows 425-460 depending on which dyno was used.

Q, you might need to blow out your drain lines.

Is there a dripping coming from outside overflow pipe....Usually under the Soffit and near a window where it could be noticed.

Anyways, Jason boy will fix ya up.

Morning all.

Bed at 2am + storms waking me up at 6am + about 12 or so hours of work today = a very long day today. Already (still) tired and I don't see it getting any better.

I couldn't sleep because of the storms too. I couldn't get in the shower to get ready for work because of the lightning. I normally don't buy into the whole 'you shouldn't shower during a thunderstorm' theory, but wow that lightning was pretty intense, and I didn't want to get by mother nature, so I waited it out. I watched the weather guys on WFAA until the intensity of the lightning died down, which took about 30 minutes.
