Looks nice and that's a pretty sweet deal. I think if I told the powdercoaters around here that I would hang out and help to save some money, they'd tell me to GTFO. lol

It was fun I got to hang out with Norm the owner. He's a 85 year old veteran that has seen it all and has a real issue with the current polictial climate. Once I mentioned I help organize my local tea party group I was in. Being a patriot has its benefits.  |

Well after spending the last 3 days cleaning old parts I am finally ready for paint. I dont have a paint booth and since its snowing out I will have to make do with what I have. I cracked the garage door about a 2 inches and used a fan to direct the fumes outside. Then I threw up some plastic sheeting to keep the over spray down.  Prepped and taped.  It was so cold in the shop I had to use my heater to keep the parts warm so the paint would stick.   Then a knock on the door, ups.  Parts here!  I still have my exhaust and bearings yet to get in but this should be enough to get me started.  |

You get some lavender bubble bath in that box too? ;D
You need a racing parts section on your site with a disclaimer before you enter that reads simply "Ballas Only."

So Im sitting in the shop waiting for my paint to dry and started to read over the Koso RS Dyno I got for the ruck.  This thing is better and easier to hook up than expected. What it does: MPH in mph or kph RPM with over rev light adjustable Fuel gauge Temp gauge with adapter to fit on the spark plug Clock It has the standard issue LCD screen with all the wizbang you would expect however it has a added bonus. POWER TEST! It records acceleration, top speed, distance timer. That way when you make change to the engine or variator you can document exactly what the improvements did! Well done Koso! Well Done! *claps hands* |

More parts arrived today. Metrakit Ecologic   Cant imagine where the restriction could be...  Tag bars  Polini 9 roller speed kit  The crank is in the freezer and tomorrow Ill be putting the crank bearings on and doing a little top end clean up. Then hopefully my transmission bearings will be in and I can get this thing knocked out. |
