No not really, but the fact you're so eager to share that tidbit does make a cringe just a little.

Forever....and I'm not done yet.

Honestly, I didn't keep track of the actual hours spent on the mechanical or electrical work that I did. I'm gonna say somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 actual manhours.

It was a 4.6L Stroker with bad bearings. Rebuilt it and sold it to help fund this project.
