I don't know the true benefit of premixing. i know that if I went that route iwouldn't forget to mix due to the fact that if you don't, there goes your motor. That help me remember. I'm still weary about it now though. If someone could explain the pros for it to weigh against the cons I would consider it.

Well, I got my intercooler piping in today. God bless Jegs and their extremely fast shipping. I also got a Simpson Open-Face Helmet for Autoxing. I'm about to head out and hopefully get all the FMIC piping cut and welded tonight.

I'm just using aluminized steel. Just give 'er the ole spray can job. I'm too cheap to use aluminum or stainless steel.

I did'nt get as much as I hoped to get done last night because there is a new lift coming today, and we had to try to make room for it. Also, I never realized how much of a pain in the ass it was to remove the front bumper. I kept snapping all of the bolts and I have to remove the front wheels just to reach them.

$130 ;D Jegs is having a sell on size 8 which fits like a 7 1/4-7 1/2. Well, worth the money.

All I know is that it is just as tight as the 2 other XL helmets we have. Fits perfect for my fat head. ;D

We finally got the other lift installed and the garage cleaned up. I also managed to get my front bumper cover off with only a couple of broken bolts. We should have the intercooler mounted and start making the tubing Sunday. There has been a problem getting my transmission and I found out that it has'nt been shipped even though I payed for it about a 4 weeks ago. But it should be on it's way here now. I hope anyways.

I bought it from Speed Machine Performance but it was'nt in their posession. They were selling it for another place and the other place just decided they were'nt in any hurry to ship it. So it's not their fault, just the dumbasses it was coming from. Once it gets here and I get my car back together I think I'm going to buy one of their CF hoods or at least a CF scoop replacement.
