All that and a few other less interesting bits (starter and some fuel lines/fittings and maybe a couple other things I didn't take pics of) came yesterday...all via one order with Roush.

Roush dyno'd it before it was shipped:

Love those rocker covers and air cleaner. Roush stuff always looks nice. Can you tell me what EFI system it is?

Thanks Pylons. I see this handles engines up to 650hp, which is good. Before you sent the link I did search them out but they said they handle 550hp or less. My engine is borderline at 560hp so I need to order the right one!

There's always the up-to-1200hp version :)

ha ha! Think the 650 hp version will be good. Although the base kits are similarly priced but the 1200hp kit has a nicer computer tuner!

Wait a minute... that's exactly what I asked Santa for this year. Clearly he made a mistake delivering it to your place.

I will be up this weekend to pick-up my presents. I will also talk to Santo to make sure he gets yours to you at some point! ;-o)

Great stuff pylons, and I am totally jealous! That is all going to look very, very sexy in your roadster! Enjoy.

Steve
