Haha, no worries man, nice meeting you too. Too bad I won't be around to run vc again when you have your new setup on, that would have been fun!

I have a small leak between the head and block now but I'm waiting until I get back east to have the head built and gasket replaced.

Yeah, I'm heading out on Sunday, April 6. This will be the first time I'm not looking forward to driving my car.
Have a safe trip.

Oh...duh, f-ing vicodin. Yes, but I think I am wanting to get rid of the volks. Too nice of rims for a daily driver, and I am not sure I am liking the gold on yellow.

Volks > Axis. You should sell the Volks and get some stock enkei, or better yet, get some stock bbs. It's hard to beat the quality of the stockers for the price. Should have some extra $ after those transactions.
