I'd like to hope my donation didn't go to this POS. You've got a sh!t ton of work to do with this. What's your plan, restore and sell?
I know (think) you're joking, but cracks about spending kickstarter money on a car directly question my integrity and I don't find them funny. I haven't seen a cent of that money yet, anyway.
You've apparently never owned a business. You don't mix business money with personal money. 2 seperate things. If Ox is having to fund his business with personal money he might as well shut it down.TallyGator;n226981 said:Perhaps you should have thought this one through before sharing your Corvette restoration efforts with the people who funded your Kickstarter request. My recollection is that you stated you did not have the funds to produce some type of video presentation for GatorChatter versus just the podcast. But apparently you do have the funds to restore a car. Just sayin'...

I do have a superram and long tubes that I will be installing with this. Let me know your thoughts. |

Just a thought, go for the fastburn heads instead of the 113s and buy a vortec base from scoggin and that baby will scream. Sell the old 113s.

Short block may be be better and save money in the long run. Just something to consider due to labor.
