            Not really. Haven't had time to work on it. Been a pretty eventful couple of months.

            I got married. Found out I have a baby on the way. Bought a house.

            The house does have a sweet garage though so as soon as I get it set up, its on. Plan is to have this thing done by spring.

                Ya, I have a daughter now which is awesome but that puts a damper on car time. Moving everything into my new garage this weekend. Should be plugging away soon.

                  My type of thread. Good work, keep doing a little every day. Even 15-30 minutes per day will get you much farther than you think.

                          Thanks guys, being a Father is definitely cooler than I ever thought it would be.

                          Finally getting my garage sorted out. Natural gas line is getting ran to the garage on Monday so I can have heat; then I'll finish organizing and get my parts and the car over here. I can't wait to get ripping on this thing again.

                          This bottom end is not forged (stock pistons with B6T rods). I'm gonna get it running on this engine, then build the new one. I have pretty much everything to build a complete engine sitting on the shelf. Wiseco 9:1 pistons, eagle rods, ARP main and head studs, Supertech valvetrain. Just gotta locate some cams, an oil pump and a damper pulley.

                              Thanks man. Appreciate it.

                              I'm gonna finish this if its the last thing I do. My job is very demanding and I work all the time. I make really good money but I don't have time for ****. I almost have everything in place to be able to start back up on it though.
