      Yup. Lol. Great guys. Was that the year Ev was running around looking for a drive shaft minutes before last hit, last day? We're heading out of town for doc appt, but will tell them when we get back Thursday for sure !

      They've been awesome. They've let me hang around and help with what I can. And I've learned a ton.

        Yep.We were all standing there with tools and parts in hand to thrash.He got out and his concern was a driveshaft and Mike had one that would fit out of his Cuda.Ask him about the gas driveoff prank we did to Larson.It was great to see Ev last year.Just wish he would have had better luck.

                Awesome. I'll let guys know you'll be there. Pretty sure Ev is going.

                We've been chasing electrical gremlins for 3 days. It will run - Then lose this sensor, crank trigger, that sensor, where's cam signal, etc lol. Drops timing to 2 degrees on its own. Back and forth up and down. Ev, Nick, Alan, Dave, Mike. Whole team has been freaking awesome dealing with this BS and grinding.

                Harness in. Harness out. Harness in. Out. Cut apart. Trace this. Test that. Ground here. Ground there. This morning Ev was in at 7am today making changes figured out from deciphering everything. Seems to run correct now. Just wants to ensure few more things so nothing can creep up and bite us. Plug and play ain't always what it's wrapped up to be. Lol.

                So knock wood and pray ... the new-build demons are slayed . Lol. All part of the game.

                Be great to meet you! See ya soon. Hell or high water!

                      Well. Phantom electrical BS continued. Long > short. Installed FAST XFI 2.0 and it started right up, ran, no codes, picked up all sensors, didn't drop anything. So who knows what the deal was with other. At this point we need to just run it. Dyno tomorrow and the street.

                      Thanks to all guys at shop for hanging in. Just one of those things. Gremlins.

                      Probably just another typical DW prep story. Lol.
