    I have to be at a clients store for some computer services they need. Im not sure how long I'll be there today. Im thinking 5 hours.

    Until I find a job I'm day by day with time. It sucks but these bills have to come before play.

    I've been working on it off and on for the last few days, so I guess about 12 hours. I have the stock tune from Vortech, but I'll have to get a custom tune for the meth kit.

    ....and Thanks for the complement.

    Ken, your install looks great! One thing, (if you haven't) please check with Snow to make sure its OK to mount your meth pump sideways. I seem to remember the Labonte kits specifying that the pump be vertical with the head be down.

    I enjoy working on my ride, stress management.

    Thanks for the complement. According to Snow the pump can be mounted horizontally or vertically, and I'm glad because as you can see in my application it needs to be horizontal.

    Thanks Elvis.

    I couldn't spend much time today working on the car but I did get the Safe Injection unit mounted.

    Great location for the Meth unit Ken.

    Hopefully you will do a How To on the Meth kit?

    Thanks Ron. I couldn't find any where else to mount these things and make it look right, and be functional.

    Here is a short video of the 1st start up with the new Vortech V-3 Supercharger. I also took her out for a spin, and was amazed at the power. When the boost kicked in I could feel myself being pulled into the back seat. What a RUSH!!!

    Thanks guys. Installation was pretty straight forward. I had to pin the crank, have the power steering pump pulley removed, and new hub pressed on, and the rest was just bolt on stuff.
