    That's OK, I am not tuned yet either, although you'll still smoke my newly painted doors off the frame.

    Thanks everyone. It will FINALLY be nice to no longer be embarrased by having a POS. The killer is that as soon as I get it back next week, it goes into storage for the winter. Might try to squeeze a day or two of driving in.

    Maybe I'll get my new tires and get my new chrome wheels mounted also
