I hope its ok, I spent a few more bucks but the v-band I really wanted to be stainless. I figured you would be ok with that

I was going to ask you about live tuning ! That's fine what your getting!

Sister in law had melanoma in some lymph nodes. They removed the cluster Wednesday. My father in law was in until Sunday and we spent a lot of time at the sis house. We took several meals over. My wife and her sis are VERY close. It was just bad timing. Oh well.

I kind of think having the adrenaline would be better so oil pressure is at least less of an issue. .i hope ..lol

Aaron, if you want to get me one made, and the 90's, I'd be happy to paypal you some money or send you a check. Just let me know. I could do it myself this winter, but means you are already getting one made, it will save me time of figuring it out and getting one made myself.


Thanks man.

Just as well make me one Aaron. PM me your paypal if you want or your address if you want a check. If you want to build it first so you know the cost that's fine. If you are sure on that cost and won't short yourself, I'll send you 60 bucks to cover shipping.

Happy Birthday buddy! You are getting a great birthday present from a bunch of great guys! I wish I could be there. If my current situation was any different, I would be the first one there! I'll have to watch this one from the side lines though. You're in good hands regardless!

I wish I could be there to know all of you personally and of course to help, but Im far away from you.
You need a TLC with extended warranty, just in case

It will be a tail light warranty. As soon as we can't see the tail lights, warranty is up.

Just kidding Glenn.

On a side note, I'm delivering a small trailer to Nate tomorrow with 1,500 pounds of goodies!
