Thanks and I agree. I wish EPM the best too. But with this latest development in my life I need to stick with proven items and not try to reinvent the wheel. I am on a significant time budget I know the Shearer mani will perform as expected. He never disappoints. It should be here any day and we'll be back on the dyno and right off to the track. The front windshield has been replaced with glass also to eliminate that problem as well. Rear glass is going in but I am having issues finding someone to replace my stock glass due to liability??? Other than that, the car is ready for action. I hope to have some cool new pics end of the week.

MOREPSiTEHBETT4- Thanks. Now that the initial shock is over I am starting to get excited

You can try Bob's Auto Glass. They have two locations. In Lake Worth and Riviera Beach. They drive out to you. I've dealt with them a lot when I was the body shop parts manager at Arrigo Dodge. They also did the front glass in my moms cooper. They've always done a good job and have great customer service.

This is their info for the Riviera shop since its the closest location to you

Congrats on makin a kid too! There's only real one difficult choice when it comes to the baby. Do you get the Sparco or Simpson car seat?

Thanks everyone. I still cant believe it. But after 3 tests on 3 diiferent days it doesnt look like I'll be getting out of this one LOL...

As for the car. It should be on the dyno any day. David and Shearer were nice enough to hook me up with a kit, so it will be bolt up. All the oil lines that were previously made are no good to us now, so I'm happy David and Shearer helped out. It will only be a day's worth of work now. Just waiting on the mani to arrive. I would say in about a week we will be up and running. For now, she is hiding in a cozy garage at Eddie's house(Mikes very cool employee). They saved me from having to bring the car back home and then back to the shop again for repair. Very nice in my book. One thing I've learned on this journey is expect the unexpected.....

Thanks Epix. I will give them a call.

For everybody that replied like David, Tom, Mike, etc. Thank you....
