              I have one but it will be in use next weekend. Not to mention its on the wrong side of the state for you.

              Maybe you could talk the little baller (sean) into coming and picking you up.

                Interested in "renting" it after? Have a few places around town I have to drag this thing to and could use one (lol, "little baller" )


                More progress today....clutch and trans are in HOWEVER.....Katech's little 1/2" spacer between bell housing and block has created a little dimensional issue downstream. Crossmember needs to be reworked (weld some additional material for another attachment point), couple holes slotted, etc. As a resulte the driveshaft is tool long now Anyone here locally (in state) that can turn around a quick driveshaft mod?

                • I've used a shop in Troy, Balance Engineering to balance my driveshaft. I think they make custom ones too.

                    Also known as Dynotech. They built me a custom shaft overnight last week before the cruise.
