Wahoo! Any other major parts you're waiting on? Sounds like its go time :D I'll have to take a peak when I'm up at DB on Friday...

Should be it from my understanding, not sure where the engine is for status, hopefully getting close :)

Well couple slight hang ups. Cosworth Rod bearings had to be sourced, no vendors had them in stock, so I had them 2-day aired in since I am guessing these are holding the build up at this point.

Talked with FP...the upgrade was $1099 with the porting I got and a slight hiccup, they decided they wanted to do an oil line upgrade kit with the Black so they are developing it right now and said it would be ready for shipment tomorrow at the latest it sounded like. So nothing too terrible, just more money needed to be spent, something like $150 at worst for the oil lines.

I hope you put Mega insurance on this thing for how much you got into her!

Just full coverage...if something happens it happens. I will steal the motor out of it if it gets wrecked, but I don't want to pay a super high premium and after looking at what Lomkers figures were it has to be a special insurance to get what you want, pass.

I haven't done it yet. I have +$5k coverage with Progressive. American Family quoted me +$20k for another $75/mo.

I ain't worried about wrecking, I'm worried about the whole car being stolen. You're right...not the end of the world if you have the car to pull parts off of.

I doubt mine would get stolen, it will spend most of its time in garage, but hey it could happen i suppose. I will look into some of it, but doubtful i do anything. it isn't too flashy though.
