Congrats Jon, sorry I didn't make it up to Mike's this weekend, I was helping out Stage 6, waiting to get my V-Bands welded... however Dwight was too busy and never got to my car so hopefully I can make that happen today... also have to go get a hobbs switch my fuel pressure is hella high, even with the modded siphon...
