They Next-Day Aired it to me so now I should have everything. Looking at the directions I really don't have much left to do. Soulfly is getting me the 5/8 tap I need to finish the oil drain Wednesday night, and if all goes well it should be running Thursday!
I keep running out to the garage and staring at that big (http://atomicinternet.homeip.net/newmcneco/photos/SuperCharger_09-21-02/P0000069.JPG) beautiful (http://atomicinternet.homeip.net/newmcneco/photos/SuperCharger_09-21-02/P0000067.JPG) supercharger!

I'd so come over tomorrow but it's Aly's 21st birthday. If you don't have it running on Thursday night-give me a call and I can come over after work (9pm) to fix the bugs.

Well Soulfly and I spent the better part of an hour trying to get the oil-drain nipple into the oil-pan. The tapper was the right size/threads but the nipple just doesn't want to go in, and I want to avoid removing the pan (pain in the ass).
However if it still refuses to go in after another hour of cursing and screaming it will be my only choice. This is the last major hurdle and it's starting to piss me off! :ugh:

first u must excite the nipple by rubbing it , in various motions. Inturn the nipple will extand longer and slide in and when it loose;s its excitement it will return to a fat nipple stuck in the hole . :naughty:

This nipple is hard as a rock: no budging.

Today it's 2:00pm - 6:00pm. Odds and ends, and then I'm just waiting for the computer to come back in the mail.
Anyone who has a 5/8 x 16 NPT tap me love you long time.

Hangtime is good luck!
Got the oil drain into the pan and the radiator re-installed. Air hoses are almost done so as soon as I get my ECU back from Vortech I've got another 30 minutes of work and then it's time to start it up!
I'm making a plaque with the names of everyone who helped me install this thing. Riveting it under the hood right above the supercharger.
