I have some really cool ideas for the Fuel Cell install. I can not wait to get the welder running and start fabbing her up!! Did I mention, once this car is done there is going to be a mysterious 'break in' at the shop and I am going to coincidentally buy an exact copy of your car. I just wanted to send my condolences early for your car loss....LOL

LOL! Uh oh! I need to figure out which ATL filler neck we need for the fuel cell. There are quite a few options. I am interested in your install ideas for the cell. The EVO will be back to Akuma on Thursday as of right now and we'll bring the fuel cell and stuff back then too.

a couple years ago at work i tossed a leg up on a railing, pointed at a coworker with one arm, flexed the other arm and thrusted away mocking the hooker scene from that movie. after doing it a few seconds i glance 15 degrees to the right and there is my boss and a few vip's from corporate doing a tour looking right at me. i got uncomfortable real quick!
