      Yes it is. Ethel is a gorgeous fickle beast. That and I talk to A.Stirrett daily, and couldn't help myself.

                The exhaust note is too loud for camera. But it sounded AMAZING. :)

                    Just did the maiden voyage to really test this beast out. She held up. 300 mile trip to Kenosha and back. BMW hauled a $4000 built up LS-V motor. :)

                        Well, the diff's been sitting for upwards of 2 years, on the ground, so it needs to be broken in a little. :)

                              Well, sheared the bolts that hold the half shaft into the diff, woops.

                              Hoping to find another half shaft relatively soon.

                                Did you get the rest of the bolts out?

                                  Only one chunk of one's stuck in the output flange, the axle shaft it's self has one that's twisted/bent in there. But a simple attack with the cutting wheel will solve that.

                                      I pay extra for 3 day shipping, instead of 5-8 day shipping, still takes 5 days to get here. I wrote pelican a nice little email, about how I pissed I was that I ordred stuff, paid twice the normal ground shipping rate, to get it here in 3 days, just to have it show up in 5. What the fuck.

                                          Wouldn't know. It's still to arrive. I doubt I'll get jack shit. Seeing as the order is already 2 days behind.
