AAAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

I decided to put off going down to Auburn until tomorrow morning so I could spend some time with the Swamp Rabbit. Now I kinda wish I didn't.

Not yet...I've been swamped (no pun intended) at work and dead tired afterwards. I'm off to Auburn tonight for the LSU game (WAR DAMN EAGLE!) I'll be back Sunday and have every intention of getting the car going and idling like it should. I got a new set of injector seals, plugs, wires, cap and roto...

I'll measure tonight....there's 25.4 mm to an inch, right? Or about 9.5" or so for stock Cabby and about 10" for Scirocco?

I hope they're not G60...I already have a set of silver snowflakes lined up!

Thanks, Ron...I ordered a Bentley today from half.com. I also ordered a set of injector seals and tune-up stuff from the warehouse (I work for NAPA headquarters :wink: )

William still has me freaked out about the wiring, but we'll see what happens.....
