That sux :(   The whole thing was your idea originally, not?  Well, 
we'll hook up one of these days.........

I'm going down with a guy from up here who will most likely be 
joining the list soon, Bradley Peete.  Then on Sunday we're probably 
gonna get together and put in the water pump and some other things on 
our cars.  He has a house, so it's fix-em up time!  Now I gotta get 
me that TT exhaust before I change the axle..........I'll let you 
know what happens at PIR tomorrow.

Side note:  After the hood release cable broke, I removed the grill 
to ease opening the hood.  What a difference it made in the water 
temp! (That is, when the damn water pump hadn't spewed all the 
coolant)   I can't believe it restricts the air that much.  I'm gonna 
have to see what I can do about modifying the grill........
