Its fine I was just excited so I had to try to call you a few times...

Ok that sounds about right. The oil pressure gauge in the SL never worked so I didn't know if it stayed around mid or not. Last night it stayed a few clicks above the last line when it was around 700-1k rpm I think and up to one click below first fat line when driving. I was about to go crazy if it was bearings.

I have had alot of compliments on the red SL thanks to it looking good and not having any badges. Including the very awkward time at crystals....

Ohh and the guages ready to go on are autometer phantom with black back ground. I know there the cheaper kind but they work and I dont have enough money for the nice kind and the moment. ( oil pressure, water temp and boost)

2 seperate transactions, but as I do recall lots of beer was involved both times.

.45 inches????

If you are using spacers this thick, please tell me that you are using extended studs.

Personally, I don't like spacers, especially on modded cars.
