Hopefully in 2 weeks or so. Still gathering annoying little odds and ends for the shortblock swap (new camshaft seals, new head bolts, new camshaft cap bolts, new timing belt, new valve cover gaskets, coolant, oil). I keep picking a few things up per week. All of the "real" parts are here, ready.

On race gas, I should be able to push it pretty hard. I don't know what to expect, but I think I *may* hit 270 or 280 on 93 octane and 300 on 100 octane.

Along with the RA gear set, it should be good fun. I don't care too much about peak power numbers, etc.
