yeah, about that,,,,,,,, still no car. My painter says next week it will be done. But thats what he has told me every week for the past 2 months! So who knows! Well at least I have the motor and supercharger to stare at!
I started riding him a couple weeks ago. I think I have been getting on his nerves! Hope the quality doesn't suffer for it, Its taking way too long! If he would have worked on it at all in the first 3 months he had it, it would have been done on time!
Dude I feel your pain. The machine shop has had my Ram engine for 7 months now. I realize its just one guy but damn. Everytime I call him he says "I'm working towards it" At first I didn't care cause it was cold and I didn't have all the parts but I basically have everything I need now. My friend that was gonna help me put it back together goes back to college in less then a month now and I'm still waiting. Only good thing (well maybe not so good lol) I keep making money and I decide on even more parts to add. Like you I don't wanna hound him too much and have him half ass the build. He also said he would go over checking clearances and push rod length with me so I don't wanna **** him off to where he's like screw you I'm not helping with **** I was planing on getting it done then tearing into the car this summer. Thought I could pull off having both my toys back in service. This just makes me wanna build the 514 even faster.
thats how I feel about my truck. I would much rather drive it in the snow then my Explorer. The Ex is 4 wheel drive but sits low and don't have MT tires
anyone know about running a fmu with the m 90 supercharger?? newbie to the forums, if anyone could help me out or direct me towards a thread i would greatly appreciate it, thanks
I am sure you can use an fmu. Most people will advise against it though. They will recomend just getting bigger injectors with the maf to match and a tune. Don't tell anyone but I am going to run an fmu untill I can afford to upgrade my fuel system (again) get a tune and some other mods(stroker and aluminum heads). lol that will probably never happen, so I will end up running the fmu FOREVER! Of course this all hinges on weather or not I ever get it back from my painter!
whenever i come across a snail in my garage, i put salt on it. and i would never put it in my engine bay.
