"The Sickness Continues"
Going on two years and getting close.
TPE Wide Body: 90+ percent complete
Interior: Double D Interior: Leather selected - complete interior will be
completed by 12/1/11
Six Speed Paddle Shifter: Upon Introduction - 1st. quarter 2012
Now it's time to put some meat on the bones:
Foundation: RHS 427 Aluminum Race Block
Callies Dragonslayer Forged Steel Crank
Wesco Forged Aluminum Pistons
Custom Comp 427 Turbo Cam
STS Turbos
LSXR LS7 Cylinder Heads
Wilson Billet Banks Sheet Metal Intake Machined for
Automotive Fuel Rails ready to snort
Manely Push Rods
T&D Rocker Arms Intake
RPM Attitude Adjusted Transmission along with a strong
supporting cast that matches perfectly with the above.
I am hoping that once completed the vaccine will kick in and I will be saved.

Nice bunch of mods you're doing, but trust me, you'll always find something else to do to the car.

There is no cure.
There are only two known treatments, each with serious drawbacks:
TREATMENT 1 - Indulge the disease. Keep modding the car, knowing that each mod will lead to more mods. The downside is that it's expensive, and you're never completely satisfied with the car. It always needs "just one more thing."
TREATMENT 2 - Sell the car. This is far less expensive than Treatment 1, however it causes severe withdrawal symptoms and deep depression. Consequently, Treatment 2 is not recommended for most patients.
