Thanks! It's not quite finished yet, but it is getting close.

The throttle linkage was slipping, so i need to take it back to the dyno and see what numbers it puts up. You know, for a measuring contest. The secondaries were only opening 1/4 of the way. I thought i had it fixed several times, but they just kept slipping. I ended up welding all of the linkage together once it was adjusted correctly.
Now i need to remove the linkage and detail it, finish the footbox vent, close off the one puke tank hose that is dripping oil out under the car(not sure what it originally went to-one on pass side upper of tank), finish repainting letters on tires, buff and wax the paint, and polish the sidepipes and headers. Yup, they are just too nice to paint white. More photos to come soon. 180 miles on the car so far.
Arnaud came down on Thursday and we put around 40-50 miles on the car. Good times!
