YES! I like the words you are typing.

You will be stopping by to take me for a ride on your way to battleborn, right? I dont think i'll make it this year even though my car runs a drives-ish. Not gonna have any vacation because of being off for 4 months due to shoulder surgery.

Dude :( That sucks! OF course you will get a ride! BUT what you should do is take off Friday morning with us and come back Sunday. Is your shop open on weekends?

SO My H1C/K26 and Rods are here and because of that, the motor is getting pulled again.

So anyways, I had to snap a few shots before I get started...

That motor looks good witht he grey paint. Those rods sure are purdy. Too bad you cant seen em once there in. My shop is open on saturdays but closed on sundays, and to take time off i have to trade a days with someone which I can tell you wont happen for a saturday. Nobody will trade their wekeend off. Now, if by chance battleborn is on one of my five day long weekends (firday through tuesday) then it may be possible for me to go. But dont hold your breath.

*EDIT* Justed checked my newly aquired work schedule and battleborn is on my five day weekend. Maybe we could have a tri of 4kq's doin a semi-long haul?

Lookin' awesome Ben! The comp housing on the holset looks really nice. I should sandblast mine. K26 exhaust housing looks laughably small on there lol. Its going to be very interesting to see how it spools!

UM. YES PLEASE!

I totally agree!

I think this is going to be an interesting experiment, if nothing else.

Looks good Ben. Can't wait for BBQ to see it. My engine is about out for rods as well.

Sweet! You can finally crank up that boost then! My car won't be nearly as sorted as yours is when BBQ comes, but it should still be fun!

I hope it lives up to all the hype!

I'm sure you'll like it. The spool on mine was not amazing, but it was definitely good! I'm sure with your k26 housing it will be awesome

Wow, have not followed up on your thread in a while. Looks like you are going all out! Really love your car ALOT!
Sits nice, and I love the original Oceanic blue paint.

Engine is out...

Now for the fun to begin!

Right on!

It is a little late in the day. Maybe you should go get some sleep and let the fun begin in the morning? LOL
