Sittin' low, needs some plastic mending/mangling/grafting for the bumper to fit right. Gonna go out and work on it now. Probably going to get new corner lamps and turn signals.

I probably can't make it down. On the weekend of the 27th-29th, Erik wants to get a mega-thrash going on at his place, to get the 245 goin'. I'm gonna try and get the 90+ all ported up tonight and installed with the 60 trim ford compressor on my turbo. I'll wait on the holset for now.
