Snow is on the ground down here in ark city. Luckily, the 500 is on. That will probably take up the majority of my time today.

Yea, I imagine it is. It's been a long time since I sat through and watched a race. I'm usually too busy working on one of my vehicles. With that being said, The IC should be delivered tomorrow. Fedex is having a hard time delivering it to the barracks. But at least it'll be there when I get back!

In fairness I am probably going to watch the first few laps, then go about doing some other stuff in the dorm while the television is on, and then catch the last 30 minutes. Its good you got parts on the way. I've got more parts than time right now.

I know it's bad, but if I'm somewhere the race is on, I'll usually only come running in when I hear there is a wreck. But yea, I still have a few more orders to have everything ready. Then I'll just have to save up for a few months for the injectors, HPOP and the money for everything to build the E-fuel conversion. But in the meantime, I'll be able to pull the block, get it rebuilt up to the injectors, and then fix up the wiring, while I'm waiting. Or just wait until I have the money for all that, and just rebuild it all at the same time.

But not having any debt will make that time go quickly, and I can build up some of the systems in the meantime, and have those fabbed up so it's just a drop in solution when I finally get to it.

If it were me I would probably build it up to the injectors and then just be waiting on the parts. Everything needs to be done on my truck I kind of have to be there with my truck haha. I need a new battery though, that sucks.

I am looking for a good 360/390 core that I can work on as money allows and then drop it in whenever it finally gets finished.

I thought of doing it that way too, but unfortunately, I live on the second floor. It's going to be hard to bring a 1k+ lb engine up a flight of stairs to work on in my room.

Tyler, I'll be rebuilding in the auto skills shop on post. They have a dedicated engine rebuild room. Pretty handy, and I hope it's well put together, I've not checked it out yet!


Have fun in Jamaica! Sounds like it'll be a nice reprieve from the cold weather! And come back when it starts to get warm!

And I was going to see if you wanted to go to lunch Curtis. I guess that is out, unless I can get to Jamaica, and Julie probably wouldn't welcome my showing up.

Thats not fair you get to leave the cold and snow and I have to sit here and complain about it HAHA. Hope you have fun in Jamaica.

And I'd lend some dorm room space to you if you don't want to build it in the shop. I already warned my roommate that a FE is about 650 lbs assembled and you might not want to kick it lol
