Yes it is and the main issue is money. Ive got bills to pay and a car I probably wont drive much isnt a real priority.

The parts will be here tomorrow. Looks like the motor will be going together very soon and the car will be out soon.

Progress is being made lately.

The motor is going together and the car is at the same location as the motor as of last weekend.

I still need to order a few parts but nothing major- just a pulley spacer and an egr similutar and maybe pushrods.

We decided to eliminate the EGR after realizing the heads arent drilled for EGR shit and I know the EGR isnt a big deal on a 5.0 anyway.

I was promised that the car will be done by the Adirondack Nationals car show.

I think 3 weeks? Really theres not 3 weeks of work to be done so it should be ok. Last year I picked it up at 5 on Friday and drove it up to the show after getting headgaskets and a clutch installed.  
Its going in the garage tomorrow. I talked to him this afternoon.

Im not sure if I want to be doing burnouts since Im not going to have alot of miles on the motor by then.

Last year I didnt do them because my clutch and rearend had 50 miles on them when I got up there. I picked the car up in CP and drove it to LG that day.

I dont want to fuck it up 50+ miles from home, thats all. Been there, done that and it aint fun.

Im considering borrowing/renting a trailer for that weekend though.

Speaking of trailers I was supposed to help get my car off one but then it rained. The heads are on, the motor is painted, the piston to valve clearance was checked and I dont need to order pushrods. I ordered an egr simulator and a block off plate and now need to get an IAC adjuster since I cant find mine anywhere.
