+1 Sorry Bill.
But if you have to have a stamp to make you feel more manly. I would do the small supercharged emblem at the bottom of the post.Fly-
Something about the triple B's that night (*****, Beer, and Bratwurst).

I'm trying to get off work early Saturday to get them installed. Its a shame I'm not able to afford another $250 to get slotted/drill front rotors for the front. Oh well, I'll switch it all back to stock rotors for now.
Ok guys, everyone overlooked my question earlier. This is life or death... not really. For the show, do I register for the 20 and under class and take advantage of my age? orrr the enter in the Modified class. Does it really matter? I'd like to place though
haha
EDIT: Leo go for the sleeper look. I actually bought the 4.6 S/C emblem for giggles and its pretty big. To big in IMO. If you must do as Bill did, small and hardly noticed. Lol

I agree with them; Go the age route. You'll place for sure
Leo - If I could, I would have a KB sitting where my manifold is
At least by mid-November, I'll be feeling some kick

Last year, I entered into a 'Modified Class' at a carshow and I got creamed by high dollar modded cars (custom paint, body kits, interiors, etc).
... That plus the fact that I'd told myself way back when that if and when I got a SC I'd got to ST.
Yeah that was my initial though combined with the fact I'm not liking any of the emblems I posted 100%.

And from what I heard lastnight, you just may get yours done before mine.
Yeah Leo, if you don't like any of the emblems, don't get it. Worst case, they just peel off like the '281' emblems you had on the Shaker.
From what I can remember that night, you only had 2 of the 3 B's.

I do but if I can get a deal on Brian's wheel's I'd take them. Remember I'll be needing that bigger rubber out back once the SC goes in.

Just want to make things clear here, Greg has nothing to do with this machine shop delay. All he can do (and is doing) is apply a little thumb pressure on them to get things done.
With that said, nothings come back from the machine shop, so nothings being done to my car. Funny how that all works.
Brian's wheels/tires are fairly new so even if he did sell them, they'd probably be slightly below what he paid. You should look into a new similar set in the wheel color you want.

Nothing. That's the problem.

on that guys butt. I get a week, maybe two but this seems ridiculous. Especially for a valve job and R&R. Perhaps it's me and my experience with previous shops but anytime I had head work (yeah let the jokes come in) It was never this bad. I've even had the heads on my 429 machined, decked and everything in less time. Granted it was on an old OHV head and not as complex but still the operation is much the same.

That is the wheel color I want. They don't have polished and chrome is to blingy. Considered black but that's to modern looking for me.

Try 3+.
I have no clue what the major disconnect is what this machine shop. This is about how long Swansons machine shop took, so either its the industry standard (3+ weeks) or they're both using the same shop.
btw, did you look into the exhaust squeak?
I consider it bad enough.

maybe it is the normal ETR ?? Looking at past experiences I am kinda surprised though. At least you'll know that once it is back it will be put to the right way without all the extra bits

Sorry, something has come up and I have to kinda defend some database calculations and updates that I did in July to the CFO and CEO. I'm surprised that the reply actually came through 'cause I killed firefox before it refreshed.
Anyway.....
No. I didn't. But I'm putting the DRs on tonight to be ready for Irwindale tomorrow and should be able to get a good look at it.
I had to pull some OT last night and I just could not get to it.
