We have a Hass vf8 and 6 and a horizontal machine that's new. 2 Mazak integrex's and a small lathe. I have been running a small Milltronics lathe for over a month now. That is a nice machine also. Just got a Agie wire edm in on wednesday. If you ever make it to the Houston area, give me a holler and I will give you a tour of the shop. Down at the sheet metal/welding area we also have a couple of water knifes. Man I could go on all day about this place,HAHA.

Hey Doorracer- nice work. We have many cnc's where I work, but not used for automotive. Every time I see them @ work, I can't help but wonder the possibilities of making parts!! I see them work (cnc) but I have never used one. I am told the molds alone are a fortune themselves. We have a water-jet where I work too... neat machine!! Anyways, nice job! Scooter

We are only about 4 hours east of S.A. Went there saturday to S.A. Raceway and stunk up the place. At least we got out of town and the wife got to make a few passes on her car since we got it back together.

I've been trying to build something that would make all the idiot drivers realize that they are idiot drivers.

Thanks Rudy, everyone is fine I hope you and yours are the same.
I didn't like the way the alternator was fitting so I remade the mount, (bottom pic). Finally got the motor at least in the car.
