I heard production started again Sept 18.I am sure you will have moved up the list as I know a few that took a RS 500 instead of a 600.Why not try and swing a deal with Shafi see if he will lend you a RS 500 until they have your 600 done.Maybe you will find the 500 will suit you it took 500 Lbs of torque for 24 hours without a flaw.If that's all you need to drive it only took two weeks after I switched to get a 500

How close is your Chevelle to being ready for a trany? Looks really great in the pixs.

THNX!! Yea supposed to get the body on the frame back from my guy by nov 1st. Then while i install motor, trany, and whatever else i can get on it that wont mess with paint he will be doing the work on the doors fenders and all doghouse prepping for paint. Once i get that done it goes back to him for dog house install align and paint!!

cant wait its been a long long almost 8 years now!

So its comming down to the wire im going to have to make up my mind here soon on what i want to do. Looks like im goint to be going TKO600. My floor is all replaced and havent even cut hole for factory opening yet. So making it work for the TKO600 isnt a big deal.

I would really love to have this car ready for spring!!
