The 'splainin is for my dad's vette that he mods and plans on handing down to me. I help him with it like its mine because it will be. No need to get hasty in here. He's too busy to worry about forum stuff so I researched the stuff for his car. I won't be able to get it until I am responsible enough for a car that fast. So he bought me this to take care of. Sorry if you don't have respect for me anymore.
