So am I getting this right? Are you just trying to anihilate this car??? Lol
No no.. If I was trying to anihilate the car I would have got the 3.25" and not done supporting mods. I got the 3.5" to be SAFE. I don't want a new engine just a new tranny cause this one is questionable. The engine is very strong and I intend on keeping it good as long as possible. I don't want KR so i'm playing it safe with the 3.5".

This time we go south on Cedar away from civilization, thus cops. Still, just my luck there will be a trooper.

O.K. here are the two options I have. Either way the first weekend of April is almost a guarenteed go for the pulley swap and cupler replacement.
Option#1- I go camping this week and stop at the Ozark, MO track on the way back home.

Option#2- The first Sat of April we can both go to the Waterloo, IA track. You can run your SSEi and take videos of our runs. That way we can avoid the BS calls if either of our cars run freakish numbers. Then the next day do the swap. Rock Falls and Brainard don't open til April 15th and I can't wait that long.
