Thanks John! Probably 2 weeks. The DME and the rest of the parts I need will come this coming week, but I won't be able to work on it this weekend, but the weekend after that. Just wanted to wet your all's appetite!

What do you need for small parts???? I have a "stash" of bits - if you need them???

Sounds like you are doing great work!!!

BTW - Matt - you coming to Hershey this year? If so - if we have a formal dinner on either night - it's on me, OK???

John,

The parts I need are the following (which I have already ordered from Paragon and another Rennlister so they will be coming next week -- thanks so much for the offer though!!)

968 DME
968 MAF
968 Fuel Rail/cover
968 upper radiator hose

Other then that, I do still need a cone air cleaner setup, so if anyone knows how I could go about getting a K&N for cheap and someway to mount it, I'd be greatful.

John, if I do go to Hershey, which I truly would like to do and will work to make that happen, I need to buy you a dinner - not the other way around! But I'd be honored!

Below are some pictures. For the rest, click on my new album I made on the Rennlist gallery.

Thanks guys for your support.

Take care,
Matt

Hey Matt...!!!!

Just went through your list-o-parts - and can you list something I actually HAVE??!!! Sorry about that - but no 968 parts (but I do have a bunch of 951 parts??!)

Anyway - you make it to Hershey - and the Banquet and beers are on me... Just my way of saying "thanks" for all you do - and CONGRATS on your "upgrade"!!

Howvever - it better be running by Hershey time - or I will post back..

Glad to hear things are going well - should kick *** when you're done.

Let me know if I can help you out any further.

Regards, Al

Matt.... This just dawned on me. John at Black Forest just converted a 968 to the LT-1. I'd bet he'd have just about anything you need( If he can find it)! Might be worth a call. He's in Delray Beach, Fla.

Matt- looks amazing- glad to see it's gone relatively smoothly.

Wow! I'd be real interested on the power differences when you get to "break it in"..

Predator, do you have a number that I could reach him at? Thanks for the tip.

Chris, you have no idea. "Breaking in" is going to occur on the back roads of NC and should prove to be fun.
