WOW! I must have forgotten my password, not likely, and requested new info. Took over an hour to get it. I thought it was going to an old e-mail addy because of the dealy. Oh well, here I am now.
I did just move and looked in the two places I figured the buildsheet would be. It wasn't in either place, so I'll have to keep looking.
For OhioC5, here is my e-mail so you can keep in contact with me and keep nudging me to find it for you. BECcruice@gmail.com
And with all this attention, tell us about yourself? Are you the original owner? I figure not as you googled your VIN and that sounds like a second or third owner move...

As for starting the car for the first time. Proper breakin procedure is to take it to redline and bounce it off the rev limiter for 5 minutes, right?

Pretty sure I'm the 3rd owner. Second owner bought it with 9k miles in 2007 from my friends dealership. He brought it back to my friend with 12,500 miles, long tube headers, Corsa exhaust, battery cover, and a ton of other little additions. My friend called me and said I have your next car. He wouldn't tell me what it was over the phone, but said I would buy it on the spot. He was right, I loved it. It just turned 13,000 miles, car probably looks as good as the day you first saw it.
Oh hey, you made sure they put the good valve springs in my car didn't you?
