Finally put my order in on 5/24 complete date of 7/8!!!! I'm so excited!!!! I find my self constantly researching on the net when I should be doing other things around the house. Talked to Courtine a few time over the last week to finalize all of my options. I took advantage of the 50/50 sale been waiting patiently for it to happen and loaded up with a lot of options. I have been waiting 13 years to finally pull the trigger. I have been lurking on both forums for years on and off. I ordered the Coyote package through Forte’s Parts Connection, went with T-56 along with his hydraulic clutch setup. I can’t wait for the fun to begin and want to think all of you guys who have made building one look so do able. The forum has been so valuable to me already and will continually reference it as I build my dream car. If anyone plans to be at FFR during the week of 7/10, would love to get a picture of the kit sitting on the self.

Welcome, Paul. You've been lurking long enough to know that this will make you like a kid waiting for Santa! You've clearly done your homework and ordered good stuff from FFR and Forte. I had to laugh when you wrote, "I find my self constantly researching on the net when I should be doing other things around the house." It's been 10 years and 2 builds since I caught the FFR disease and I've probably spent as much time on the net and forums as I have building. This disease is progressive, for sure, and maybe incurable. At least, I hope.

Congrats and welcome aboard. The coyote is awesome. Love every second of driving mine.

Ha I feel you on spending time on the computer. I probably spent 3 hours researching planning for every 1 hour of actual work building.

Congratulations (from another long time lurker). So many Coyotes now. You're making me and my carbs feel old.

But that's a great motor, so... Awesomeness!!

Mach'er looks like we will be getting our kit about the same time. I don't plan to do a build log but will do updates on the process, maybe we can share experiences along the way.

Scott, I follow you on Instagam. Your car is beautiful and I plan to use your paint scheme for the coyote cover along with other ideas. Thanks to you and guys like Paul (Edwardb) I don't have to spend that much time researching for the coyote install. Well documented on this forum and FFCars forum.
