I fixed a slow leak in it's right rear tire (a small nail was in it), and I had to rebuild it's left front brake caliper. And I also put a rebuild kit in it's master cylinder. And I also replaced it's air filters. Oh yeah, and I had to replace the rectifier in it's 70 amp alternator. And then when I thought it was up-and-running for the rest of the year, my 700R4 suddenly took a dump on me. I rebuilt it and added a B&M Holeshot 2000 torque convertor while I had it out. And I also took my 4 tube radiator out and repaired a split in it's upper left tank. This year has been an unusually high maintenance year for it.

As I'm going to put a new set of tires on it and throw a $5200 paint job on it before the year's out, this will be the most expensive year ever for it.

You will be taking the intake off in September too, when do you have time to drive it?

I did a lot more this summer than I had planned since I was hoping to rebuild the motor during the winter, but it was pushed back to spring and summer. So, 383 stroker, Accel-DFI multiport fuel injection system, and a whole lot of other things, just look at the picture in my sig, you can see how much was changed under the hood. I just ordered all of my stuff today to work on the interior. I was hoping to get it in before the NCM trip, but it looks like I will be going down first and then doing to interior.
