well yesterday i took the family and went over to see the famous cutrone christmas display...which was nice. he's got some nice displays but the best was when he was breaking in bob's engine before he turns it up alot. well it was at 6lbs and lemme tell you, from the passenger seat your like

it huals ass. i mean it screams. you get thrown into the back of your seat. and this was joey babying then engine..shifting low and not getting on the engine at all. in fact it makes me want turbo

poor bobs, gonna read this and goes DAMN I HAVENT FELT MY OWN CAR YET! what bob felt was nothing, about 4 psi and balky as **** cause his dreaded 97 non recalled fuel pump DIED THE EXACT SECOND HE WS IN IT, lol, i didnt even have the heart to charge him after pulling the lines off and seeing no fuel!
i gotta go in tomorrow and hammer out a leak, dial up to about 9 psi (the engines built for 12-14 once broke in, AND WHAT YOU FELT WAS 6! LOL i think we pissed off every neighbor i got! pffffft
car IS fast, and when im done tomorrow itll be faster, tomorrow i go it alone till billy comes in at 4, and hes on a motor swap on a 97 sl (not bobs) then he goes into tkt 14 with me this week as 16 goes to the machine shop, ive lsot an incredible amount of time, NO motor, especially one where someone else allready isntalled the turbo, should take as long as bobs, it was one snag after another and with me on the road most of the time allot of it was out of my control, but thats over too, you could say, im back in the saddle again.

damn you guys make me want to come down there now for my engine swap. im pricing turbo stuff on my end to see what i come up with....because of no one getting a hold of CCA I dont want to wait for a turbo after the engine is installed. I just want it all done at once. Congrats on the engine work there Joey!

ill be talking to anthony at cca this week, heres the official wordon his stance, the website wasnt getting enough interest so he will build kits on demand as we ask him.
