Dave...youwish2bme (how did you arrive at that username anyway)
I read your post. 1st of all...who are you calling an old timer!! 2nd of all you must be having flashbacks to your ricer days if you think that teeny motor is going to spank my LS7. And last...you children need to respect your elders now go to your room. :D :D :D :D :nono:

Oh my my my.. He does read the forum every now and then. :lol: :lol: I figure after our talk last night you might have some comments to make. I see I've graduated to having my own topic created. I figured that would take some more time.. :D :lol:

I guess I should address the screen name.. I can't help it if everyone wants to be like me. :thumbs:

I have to say you better be scared POP's :lol: :jester Here's why..



Plus


And this



And last of all 4 of dem here jewels..


I have to say after this I COULD HAVE BOUGHT a damn BB... But then again not everyone can be you man. You should have seen me and my neighbor lifting that bad boy out of the back of my van... :eek: "My eye's buldged out of my sockets" is what he said after we sat it down.. Now only two months until the 5 SPD shows up.. :crazy: :crazy:

Wish I had a pic of yours to put up but can't find it right now.. I'm gonna have another :cheers: and think of other ways to cause HATE AND DISCONTENT in NC... Dave..

Im glad you got it home. I can truly say I want to be there when you fire that bad boy up. I will also lend my services to help you break it in. COOL!!!

Dave, great looking project, kind of looks familar. :lol:

We have someone here locally (well, he now lives in Greensboro) that installed the Keisler 5spd in his BB 69'. Maybe we can all get together sometime and drool over your new toys? :thumbs:

Jer, I'm glad that you old timers finally realized it. You know the first step is to acknowledge the problem.. :lol: :lol: Yep that young whipper snapper is gonna blow you doors off or blow up tryin.. It's just money.. Oh that's right I can't spend what isn't mine... Hey that's a good idea can I start my own charity... DVF (Dave's Vette Fund) :lol:

VNV come on down man. I think I can even kick the wifey's Rustang out of the geerage so you have a secure spot. I can't wait... Hopefully Keisler will deliver as expected near the middle of Feb. I don't know if that's gonna happen considering what's been being discussed over in the shark forum though...

Rob, Good talking to ya today. Yep I saw Mark's Orange Krush.. Those hookers look mean on that orange..
Dave..

VNV I guess I got some splaining to do. :lol: :lol: I took that from another post in the Shark section. It looked to funny to pass up. I ordered my tranny a week before Turkey day. They told me that I was like 160 something in line.. So it means a delivery date of Feb 16th. Here's me. Just so everyone knows the cocky kid when they see me.. :jester

I was hoping to catch up with you over turkey day but the Monkeys got me first.

I am looking forward to seeing the "bird" on the road and laying down some black marks.

I hope your pop is doing well.

Call me when your in town.....i found a supply for the monkeys locally!
