Great, glad you are as excited as I was when I had it. I noticed that it didn't have the ply engine mounts that the one I set up did - easier for you, you don't have to take em out! Here is my build thread (http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/showthread.php?p=87831&highlight=vegas+style#post87831) that I did with Bustitup, you can see what I did and how I set mine up - that went a hair under 60 on GPS, which means it may have been over. Here is one video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyGTfIDlI7Q) to inspire you. and another for fun (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lijVS_FGYos).

Have fun and I will be watching!!!
