Damn that's light lol.
Let's see, I ordered Swift springs the other night, 9kg for the front and 8kg for the rear. I also bought these ducts for the brake ducting. They're similar to Porsche 911 A arm ducts. The outlet on these is 2.5" so I'll have to have an adapter of some kind to the 3" inlet on the ducting plate. I think this will be my only option if I do 12" wide wheels all around like I'm planning. And I took a pencil etching of the side of the spoke on the wheels and sent it to Alvin. He requested I do that so he could get the angle of the spoke down exactly. He scrapped the old designs and is doing a new one. So hopefully sometime this winter I'll get the CAD and get those cut and maybe by Spring I can have the new wheels on.
I don't remember if I mentioned it but I got the EFR 8374 from Andy a couple weeks ago, and today I ordered the cast manifold from Turblown, along with their inconel studs and gasket. There's a slight problem with this setup for me though. Since I have the Xcessive LIM, I have to find 1/8" of clearance, either by grinding it off the outside of the LIM, which I really don't want to do, or by having a machine shop shave down the flange where it bolts to the engine. However, I actually have to find 1/4" of room because I'm already spacing that manifold out 1/8" with a spacer between it and the engine just so the fuel rails don't touch. Oy vey.
Other than that though, I got a new rifle Saturday since the BX was having a sale of 15% off all firearms. That's the last one I'm buying for a while, it was still pretty expensive lol. It was one I've been wanting though.
