[ForcedFirebird]

so u should have it for monday

oh btw am i sending u back the 75mm tb or do u want me to hold onto it for when i do the sheetmetal plenum for the 3400 stuff

thnx again man

Yeah, I thought I told you in my PM about the box getting to me a little beat up, but I took the cam and lifters out and chacked them. I used the same packaging to send it to you, but since they were double boxed and bubble wrapped, I knew it would be ok.

Coll about the manifold, as you know now, I am held up again on the ForcedFirebird because of this crank issue. Do you guys think the sender should refund my money? I haven't mentioned his name yet, but who is to blame here?

As far as the TB goes, if you could photocopy the back side of it so you have measurements, just in case but then send it back to me. If everything works out, I'll be getting a new welder soon and will build one myself - BUT if the welder thing doesn't go as planned I will be making one out of steel temporarily (things are going to be a lot easier for me once I have a mock-up engine to fab on .

Replyingnow to your other thread, interested in the CNC porting...
