    You don't have to be nice in my thread... We can tell it like it is here,just ask Dave!

    I would rather have someone be frank with me then lie!

    This is Shanne, Joseph.

    I have to be nice because I am on moderated posting. So we can't tell it how it is all the way I guess.

    There are ways to tell it like it is without resorting to foul language and personal attacks.

    See the Member Policy

    #2. Interacting with others:
    Dissent is good. A well-reasoned argument is always encouraged on Motoring Alliance. Sniping, being overly snarky, personal attacks and obvious trolling are not, and will be dealt with. A lot of meaning is lost in this textual medium. Body language, inflection and tone are effectively lost so being a wise acre might raise the ire of another. Think before you post. Motoring Alliance reserves the right to delete, move, modify, and/or otherwise moderate your posts as we see fit, without notification to you, the author.

    Yep, you're a saint alright. Our waitress at 3Floyds (best beer on the planet, it's a death metal atmosphere filled with as many yuppies as death metallers), was wearing a shirt, kind of like a high school spirit shirt that said, "St. Lucifer Holy Goats". As sacrilegious as it was, I couldn't help but laughing until I almost wet myself. If I were ever to buy you a shirt, this would be the one.:devil:

    Hmmm. I must have been overly snarky. That's not hard to do when you were dealing with the guys I was dealing with.

    All that stuff is done now for the most part, and the little that's left is easily ignored. You should be on here. It's kind of a no-brainer for anyone who knows you from Jan's site.

    No time yet, traveling the past few days from one meeting to the next... I have everything I need except the flex fuel sensor.

    I won't get much done on the car till after April 6th,sadly! A few more things left to figure out on the drawing board.

    Anyone have any muffler suggestions? Custom building a 3 in system. One straight exhaust and a dual muffler system for everyday driving.

    Well then its just the Continental sensor. They have a mini sensor also. Neither one require the pull up resistor. Only the old brick style did.

    Sorry I haven't updated this thread yet, we have been quietly working away at this project among the thousand other projects/clients in the shop. The bigger items and custom fabrication has taken more time then anticipated. Quality will not be compromised!

    I will have some updates to this build coming next week!
