I'm rolling out of the swamp (Louisiana) and heading towards MI in about 20min. I'll be checking in during food & gas stops throughout today. I'll be in MI late tonight and will be around all week so give me a call on my cell if you're around and bored enough to help me with my last minute SZ chores. :)

i just made the trip from LA saturday night. good luck and watch out for the deer in Mississippi.
 
Where are you going to be staying once you get to michigan? are you going str8 to grand rapids?


I'm not sleeping with you, stop getting your hopes up! :D LOL

Made it without trouble, car ran like a top (a noisy one anyway) and got around 330 miles per tank. Had to stop for a little while just south of I80 because my legs were tingling and I was havign a hard time feeling the pedals. LOL Got in around 2am CST (3am EST) an hour after what I was planning.

Next stop Lane automotive and then Skunkworks.

You don't need pedals for cruise silly. Using cruise doesn't aid in staying awake though. LOL
 
Well ****... I guess I spoke to soon about everything running good and without problems. Drove to Lane this morning and I have no boost. Checked all of the hoses and everything is still there and I'm pulling vacuum. No screeching, or otherwise nasty noises coming from the jackshaft either. I even swallowed a little pride and called TH since he was the person who installed the KnuKoncepts jackshaft in the car. He suggested checking the keyway on the pulley which ended up being fine so its either the SC unit or something in the jackshaft setup. :( :( :( :( If anyone in SW MI wants to swing out and give me a hand and has tools shoot me a PM.

Don't worry, I figured I would get rejected, so I wasn't even going to ask:crazy:

Sorry to hear of your car trouble, good luck with it. See you friday!
