That's why it says "at this point", I have more on order but the major work is done for this year. Need to save my pennies for a 6.1L hemi, would like to do that swap over the winter.

My buddy wants to put a diesel out of a Sprinter in his CJ. You Jeep people are crazy. All I can say is, "TO THE CORNER WITH YOU!" And don't come out until you've drank about what you've done!

Woohoo, went to Traverse City this morning for my buddy's back check up and then we went to the North Peak Brewery!!! Damn, I could go broke in there. Us in a brewery? Lots of self control was called for. We each had a few "Delirious" beers and a sandwich. Long drive home though.

No work for me today.
Probably head to Left Foot Charleys tonight and get a growler full of Hard Cider to drink, then off to the new tattoo parlor a friend is opening today right by North Peak Brewing.

Hey Torr, how's it going? I was over there yesterday, hospital, Burritts, and then NORTH PEAK BREWERY! Damn I could stay in there alllll day. We picked up two growlers with "Delirious". One was empty when we got home. The only bad thing is Liz has the phone number from a couple years ago and I know damn well she'd know where we were. I think she had a chip put in me one night so she can track me. I wondered what that burning sensation was.
