Yup, Kevin, I'm the one that worked for Lockheed Martin (MFC) in Orlando. Got laid off in June, came out here to Houston and now work for a NASA contractor. Hope you enjoy your time at LM! If you're in Arlington, you're probably working for MFC - Dallas, right? I've been to that plant a few times, the people there are a lot more laid back than Orlando.

Kevin: Oh, man, do I miss those off-Fridays!
Wes: Yeah, a nice pair of headlights will get my attention everytime but there's just something about a well-proportioned rear end that's pleasing to the eye. Plus it helps that it looks a lot like my NA (except I have the rear fill-in light, courtesy of a PO).

Kevin - I like what you've done with your car, it sounds like we've done some of the same things, and have similar stuff planned for the future. I'm in the middle of a head gasket project right now and will be tackling fuel delivery/management once the head is back in place.
I'm also wondering if there's any interest from DFW 944 Turbo Rennlister's that have never seen a head off to come over to my place and check it out. I'm taking my time with it, so it'll probably be in that "state" for another couple of weeks.
I live in Crowley, which is just South of Fort Worth off I-35 (between Fort Worth and Burleson)... any interest in a local GTG/show-and-tell of head/gasket/belts/oil cooler/exhaust/etc?

haha, actually i am selling my car 
my cardomain page is pretty old and i haven't updated it in a while. the car should be sold this week, just need to finalize it with the buyer.
on a side note, i would be interested in helping out/watching the head replacement. have you done it before? (just curious why it will take a couple of weeks...) i'm going to miss working on the 44 once my baby is gone, and that means i will have to get my high off of other peoples cars.
