Went to Dan, (Hamlerda's) house today to have the Mike Rawdowski diff support brace welded up. He took time out of his day to help me out with it and he did a great job. Just wanted to let everyone know that Dan is a great guy who has a bunch of tools and is extremely knowledgeable. If you need something done im sure he could help you.

Dan didnt expect any sort of compensation for his work but I made it a point to take care of him, as that is the right thing to do, regardless if he is a friend.

Thanks Dan!

Havent been able to test it out really yet. I just got the exhaust on so I will give an update tommorrow. Its more of a fail safe for the front diff then anything else. I know with the new diff bushings I just finished doing the other day, the car shifts a heck of a lot smoother. I am talking about when you push the clutch in. Before the car would jerk a bit; now its a smooth transition. :alright

Oh and thanks for the ride in the 332 ti. That thing is a rocket!

Hey sell your car, buy a Ti, I'll build it here and you can ship it over.

I really want to do an s54 Ti swap.

isnt the wiring a biatch on the S54?

I might have 2 keep my car another 1 or so. I will consider a swap after I finish up college. That would be sweet though. S54 or LS1

No the wiring wouldn't be that bad if I had a good donor car, I would just transfer everything to the ti.

I really don't think that the Ti would be able to handle all the torque of the V8

Cant believe no one's used the phrase "Dan's the Man" yet.. but he is. Went over there with some AC trouble saturday and he totally hooked me up. We got the right AC stuff and put it in, then he showed me how to properly detail my car. It came out gleeming like it was off the showroom floor.

Again... Thanks DAN!!!!
