Slight technical difficulties have thrown a wrench into the progress but hopefully we can resume tomorrow.
I really should have a questionaire for customers to find out who has wrenched on what on their car and in certain cases just expect trouble...

Thanks Ernesto.
I will leave it to Jaime whether he wishes to discuss the holdup as it is his business and no one elses. All I can say is that is not anything that we did or issues on our end and as soon as this minor hiccup is resolved we can continue on our work and go to finish it up.
We have made good progress on the car and should have it up and running either later tonight (time allowing) or some time tomorrow.
All that is left is to mount the intercooler and the blower itself and run the piping to either and we are done.
The fuel system is 95% complete and all the alterations needed to make the blower work are done.

Car is ready, Thank alot Mark, Trista, Jeff, Ryan, (Ryans GF dont know her name), Juan, Chris for all the help last nite. We stayed at sinergy till 7 am finishing up the Shelby. Only slept 2 hours before coming to work but it was worth it. 1218Shelby is getting tuned on tuesday at RET.. can't wait to see the #'s. Juan will post pics up later. :cheers:

No problem man. All in a day.. er I mean two days work. LOL.
Definately a big thanks to the peeps that showed up. I think the overall energy of everyone here last night is what kept me going.
As usual I would most definately have a couple of notes for Paxton, but oh well.
Main thing is the kit is on, with Greg's tune it fired right up and ran like a champ and that Jaime is happy.
Baby Shelby NO MO!!! (and Alex, I would venture to say that I wouldn't count Jaime out against Charlotte just yet as one of the other Paxton 3v's we did with the same setup as Jaime put down the EXACT same power as Negro Chris' pulley'd and tuned terminator.)
