I'm sure we'll be there at some point. Mike is putting the engine in his car this weekend. He went and picked it up today.
It was dyno'd yesterday. 718 HP @6000 rpm and it was still making power, but the dyno operator didn't want to keep going. 683 ft-lb of torque @ 5100 rpm.
Mike was pretty happy.
If anyone wants to come help, come on out! Free beer and food!

PM me your directions also. I have asked 3 guys to go to the show, 2 are working and one is babysitting. Lisa is going with two of her friends to get massaged and what not all day (all of us husbands got them this for Christmas). I may go early to the show or one of my buddies wants me to go with him Sunday. If I don't find something to do I'll probably start taking the vette apart. Last time Lisa left me alone, I just about gutted it to get to the shifter, cut an inch out of it, then welded it back together. Walla, one short shifter.
