    New parts always feels good. But nothing can happen until I get that damn head gasket.

            Yeah. I emailed them this morning and got a response within a couple minutes saying my message would be forwarded the web-store manager (which it was, a CC was sent to him). This was at 10:30 this morning. So hopefully Ill have a response by tomorrow.

                This.

                I got a call from VAC tonight. They said my gasket was ordered and it will be about another week until it gets to their warehouse, and THEN it will be sent to me. So from what I understand, another two weeks... In the mean time I'm ordering a new hydro brake and going with a little different setup than I have now. I'm super excited for this :D

                  Any problem with your current hydro? Would you be willing to sell it?

                    No it works fine. It was kind of an impulse buy because I didn't have enough money for the one I wanted lol. I figured since I'm redoing everything else I might as well get the hydro I want. But yeah if it comes off in one piece I'll sell it to ya.

                        Sweet man thanks. It will be better than my cable ebrake no matter what though right? Haha

                          Anything is better then a cable E-brake. A wooden stick on a pivotal system is better

                            Lol yeah. It's plumbed in line to your rear brakes. So put simply its almost the same as your foot brake, but with your hand. They're a lot of fun. It puts out more than enough pressure to lock up our tiny rear brakes :P

                              We have like 200 different ones.

                              That's something I never thought about.. Brakes! Probably want that 5 lug swap specifically for that..

                                          Coors is my favorite generic too!! I would have to go for spotted cow as my real favorite though.
