Picked up the air conditioning unit, bracket and faceplate last night. The EFI came today, just waiting on the pulleys. Hopefully they will be here before the weekend so the work can get started.

Went to paint motor today and my friends shop was tied up and my motor was still sitting on the test breakin engine stand and not on engine stand for me to be able to paint it. I'm bummed. I want this car done in a month. At this rate it's not going to make it. I hate having to wait on other people.

I put the stock intake back on, and changed the oil before firing up today. When I started up the velle, it started blowing anti freeze all over the engine. It turned out, I didn't tighten the bolts on the goose neck. I went into the garage after work tonight and there was another mess under the car. Yep, oil all over the floor under the car. I had an idea what it was. I went to the garbage can and looked at the old oil filter and confirmed my thoughts. The seal was missing from the filter. So, when you change your oil, be sure that the seal in still on the old filter and not stuck on the engine like mine was.

Had to head back to NPD. Got the mounting plates for the wrong side of the engine. And returned faceplate we bought, because the air conditioning actually uses the "non a/c" faceplate. Since I had to return the a/c faceplate, I decided that I would replace the faceplate that I had....and I even got a dollar back.
