EVOMS expects to have everything put back together this week. The only variable is the tuning. Given all the new parts, and the increased rev limiter, EVOMS and GIAC have to create a new progam. Garrett is on vacation until late this week. If Garrett and Todd can get the programming worked out by the end of the week (fingers crossed), Ill pick the car up on Sat. Otherwise, I will pick it up next week, as soon as everything is humming perfectly. The programming is critically important and I don't want to rush the masters with this final step. Thus, as much as it pains me, I am trying to be patient (definitely not one of my inherent virtues). Ill keep you posted.

Craig - you must be getting real excited. It will be an awsome day when you first test drive the car. I believe some time back you said you were rxperimenting with a MAP set up. How are you going to meter air flow?

Do let me know man.. For now I'm treading lightly obviously... Due to timing etc.. it didn't work out yet for me but I figured after some feedback from you we could see what's next
I have some shows that I absolutely have to get the car too first (I know that's even more gay but still..).

The motor is designed for 10,000 rpm's. The most difficult part to make that would survive at these numbers was the buckets (lifters). We intend to set the initial redline at 8600. When I say 8600 I mean we can set it there and run without incident for extended periods.
