Default 12 hours of Sanford!!

Wow, what a long night.

I'd like to start by giving a huge THANK YOU to Jason. Who is probably hating me right now since we pulled an all-nighter to get my Kenne Bell installed.

My buddy Mike and I pulled up to the shop where the install took place at about 6:30 Friday evening. We pulled the hood off of the donor car and began tearing it down..








Once we got his car torn down we took an inventory of all the pieces and then we started tearing my car down...



Then the flip-flopping began (not the footwear, we were all wearing shop appropriate footgear as approved by John)
















Crappy Cell vid..

We were for the most part done by 6:30 am. I think the initial start up was at about 8 just trying to be considerate of the neighbors. Both cars fired up and ran with out any leaks or crazy stuff. He does not have the handheld to flash his computer back to stock so he was still running the SC'r tune but it ran.

I've got some things to work out on the tune but it runs pretty good. Drove it home 1.5 hours today with no issues.

Dude, I had a great time. Struggled a bit at the car show but was worth it in the end. Hope you like it.

Actually, neither of the people pictured are me. Jason is the fit looking guy. The other guy is my buddy Mike.
