I just wanted to take a minute to give some much deserved thanks.

First to everybody who makes this list possible. You guys have saved me countless headaches, and hours of work. I really appreciate those who pay for the hosting, and the admins for keeping everything running smoothly, and of course all those that contribute their knowledge!

Secondly a huge thanks to Jim Green. Jim has been so incredibly helpful through my 5000TQ project. With many others I expect responses to questions like "Well that idea wont work, you should just buy my new billet yada yada something or other instead", but with Jim I get "Yeah that will work, and here's a way to do it that costs less and may work better!". Without his advice I would have been hard pressed to ever get where I've gotten today in my project. I also compliment Jim on his optimistic and cheery attitude. When others were in doubt about my ~490hp estimate, Jim backed me up. I still love his comment... "If you don't believe him lets see you get a Viper to go head to head and I'll bet Cody wins." Funny enough just a few weeks after that I did indeed beat a Viper (and don't play the wheelspin card, we started from 35mph!), and have it on video to prove it. Recently with this clutch ordeal Jim along with Jeff Redig have saved me hundreds of bucks and gotten me way ahead of where I was aiming for. Not only do I get a strong clutch, but also get rid of that heavy MC flywheel, and STILL save over $200 from buying just a disc and pressure plate from another company.
