See ya later!

I'm headed out of here in a few days. I'm going to spend the next year or so in the desert. Thanks for all of your advice on my very unfinished project. Maybe I'll get to finish it when I come back. Merry Christmas and good luck to all of you!

Best of luck

I can't say for sure where I'll be right now. I'm thinking I'm going to sell my vortec heads and edelbrock manifold (all new in box) and try to get a cheap laptop. Maybe $600 for all with the intake gasket and intake bolts included. Thanks for the good wishes.

stay away from the iraqi liquour. They spike it with formaldahyde which is an embalming fluid. It will cause you to blow items out both ends and when you're not doing that you'll be laying in that rack feeling like trash. Don't become complacant and keep your thoughts on the importance of your task at hand. Good luck!!! oh yea and there are bugs in the desert so bring your mosquito netting and bug spray
