I wish I could tell you but there's still too much salt on the roads here. The suspense is killing me.
Steeroids might not be a bad idea. The ram leaks and the valve is less than tight so I guess I could figure the cost of those parts as a discount on the steeroids.

$1,250-160=1,090. The parts I need (new) $250(valve)+150(cylinder)=400. $1,090-400=690 more for rack and pinion. Hmmm.

I just hit 1000 myself today, it just took me 3 years longer and I had 3 generations of vettes, down to two now.
It is nice to see something besides the gold stars now.
