Holy Shit!

The Mini is running!!
I just got a call from Nick at DSG and behind him I could hear the sweet sound of the B16. It sounded a lot like digital compression noise but that's okay. I am so pumped I'm having difficulty remaining in my seat at work. AAAAAAA!

Still needs a bit of work before it's roadworthy; none of the guages are connected, it's missing the oil pressure sender, and it needs an alignment worse than your momma, but other than that it's so frickin' close I can taste it!

Yargh!
