Hi DE, The guys at New Era are great! Darin has really enjoyed working with them. The car is running awesome. Hopefully they can answer any questions you have when you stop by.

Darin video taped the ENTIRE process and took hundreds of pics. He set up our video camera on a tripod and taped until the memory got full then he downloaded it to his computer and started the process over from there. So there will be tons of video to watch. I'm just not sure how he's going to post it (probably not on YouTube because of their restrictions). Maybe on his website? He ended up getting a migraine while he was there, which was my biggest fear. But it wasn't so bad that he couldn't work on the car. Lyrica is a miracle drug! Before it, he would have been in bed the entire time.

Oh, our car was down on power considerably due to a problem with one of our rocker arms that had to be replaced. We noticed for about 2 months now that there was a ticking and the engine was sluggish. It wasn't performing like it used to. I'm hoping he posts about it. He explained it in detail to me but that engine talk goes right over my head.

Today is drive and tune day til around noon. I looked at the radar and rain is coming their way and he'll probably drive through it all the way home this afternoon into the night. Our car is going to be a big FAT MESS from the bugs and rain by the time he get's home. Argghhh! It's going to take me a whole day to wash and detail it.
