        That's a -16 line. My thermostat opening is smaller than it. It has a -20 return.

                    lol, maybe it seems small to me is because everything else in the area is so big

                        Saw the car in person this weekend. It's definitely going to be a beast.

                            Thanx guys, I just hope I can get it down the track without any issues.

                            I was just told where I can lose another 40 lbs. unless it has already been done, but I doubt it.

                                    It's getting closer. Only a few more things left. Need to finish a few small wiring jobs behing the dash, finish plumbing the AMS-1000, reinstall all dash panels, reinstall interior, set-up suspension and get an alignment done.
                                    I got a lot of misc. stuff done this weekend. I re-located the tranny cooler from the back to the front and installed a cooling fan on it. Got all the fuel system done. Had the fittings welded in for the blow-off valve and O2 sensor put in. Fabricated new brackets for the shifter cable to work with this shifter. Cleaned up some more wiring.
                                    I took a look at where that 40 lbs. is at. I think it is way too much work for what it is. It would be a lot of cutting, looks like a job maybe for next winter.

                                    I am going to try to get it on the road this week to verify the tune. I don't think too much has really changed. If all goes well, I may try to get some launches in this weekend. If launches go well and datalogs look good I may try an attempt at a full pass.

                                      keep up the good work! this thing is bad ass, i would love to see it. So what is all involved in removing this mysterious 40lbs?

                                        Inside the roof. Pull out all roof reinforcing. I guess some guys cut the roof off first to do it.

                                        Not quite as light as I was hoping for. It is still 800 lbs.

                                          800 lbs means, what, low 8s now all other things equal?

                                          Still RS/U legal?
