No, he is really responsible. You wouldn't believe me if you knew him if I told you he was 18. Everyone thinks he is over 21. He has been around motorsports his whole life like me, so he is smart about it and has handled things way more powerful than a TVS car.

He paid cash for his car 6 months ago at age 17 and paid me cash for the TVS lol

I was referring to the old song lol

Race car parts are expensive these days lol, I think I'll recoup some cost over winter to make myself feel better! I do want to buy the F40 6-speed swap though within a month or 2 when I start working on the 05...so that may cut into the saving

go back up to a 2.8 or 2.9 you are just creating extra heat and the fuel you are using wont keep up with that pulley. It wont whine as loud but it will be safer.

Thats what I meant, sorry for mis wording. And is there E85 local to you? if so run it. Just keep in mind it sucks for long distance trips.
