After 5 and a half months, the stroker swap is finally done. All issues resolved. Just got back from her maiden voyage. Butt dyno approves, LOL

It is so friggin' nice...Everything is great, good oil and fuel pressure, temp right where it needs to be, charging is good...and it runs smooth. Sounds killer. Worth every penny, busted knuckle, and minutes of my time. Gonna drive it down to go pick up my 3-link this week. AWESOME SAUCE

Took it for its first "long" drive... just 140 miles round-trip, but it's the first time I've taken it out of town. Silly thing gets better highway fuel mileage than my much newer 4-cylinder CRV.

Side note:CRV for sale.

Finally got around to installing the 5100s in the rear. Now she rides a lot smoother! Was going to do new leafs but bolts were being stubborn and that will have to wait until next Saturday!
