When you get 80 and they remember this and don't put you in a retirement home.

Buddies gf had a cruze, very nice car. I'm a decent sized dude, fit in the front fine, back was tight but I'm tall and big. Good value for a car.

Took my time over the last couple days and managed to get my valve covers, coils and new coil wiring harnesses installed. Still have to swap plugs and plug wires but I have to pull the front tires and inner fender liners to do that and I'm not sure if I'm ready for that. I'll give my shoulders a couple days to recuperate first. Still having a lot of pain and difficulty. My right one makes popping sounds constantly and when it does that a few times it flares up. I'm running out of patience.

Got the plugs and wires installed today. It definitely runs better. Looks good too! Also, finally came to an agreed settlement on my bagger with Allstate- $42,500 plus they pay my appraiser's fees and helmet.

Excellent news! Are you going to buy the bike back?

No; it has a bent frame and besides that I'm done with bikes. The only way to resurrect that bike would be to cut the part with the VIN out of the frame and send it to HD to make a new frame with the same VIN and even then the title would say salvage. I decided to quit riding after this anyway.

I still have a dirt bike to ride around on the farm, I sold my bikes long ago and won’t ever go back. Too many idiots on the road.

Everything with the new trans and driveline parts seems to be holding up well so....ordered a 3.375 pulley for the Whipple today to replace the 3.75 that came with it. Boost should go from 6 to 9 psi. Woo-hoo. Justin at BB said I'll be at the limit of my PCM as far as airflow. Possibly could go to a 2-bar tune, whatever that is, if I want more. I'm thinking I'll be good. Thing is already a beast.
