^WTF? 
You better post some damn pictures of that setup!
I have realized that I will likely have to replace my battery clamps this summer. Oi.
*edit*
I HATE BIRDS.
They f*cking **** all over the damn place.
I just got in, in case you can't tell, from rinsing my truck off.

ordered almost everything for my 360 build today. ordered my m1 and everything needed for it only to find out that the m1 is on back order from chrysler... the only one available in the country is at a dealer in NJ and they wont give it up to chrysler parts direct because theyre "holding" it for an employee. ***s!
anyway. getting ready to order the heads, and im picking up the motor tomorrow. 140k for 250!

Edit: I called my parts guy and your right there is 11 on back order, I think you need to start looking where ever you can to find one if you want one.
ill know tomorrow how long it will be on back order for. ill call summit, and jegs tonight. good thing about jegs is they price match...

higher octane fuel will never give a "performance increase"
there is less energy in higher octane fuel than there is in lower octane fuel.
the higher octane is less combustible than lower octane and eliminates engine ping (detonation) on high compression/high performance engines.
believe me when I say if built race engines could run on 87 octane pump gas, they would be running it as they would get more power from it...fact is though if they run it, its like taking a hammer to the top of their pistons...low compression motors (like your v8's) do not suffer from this.
scares me to think what my motor would do with 87 octane gas if it were a gasoline with the same compression its running now...(17.5:1)
