Will do, but what if I'm not in your area? I still have your #.

Appointment is set for alignment. I'm seriously considering getting a spare fuel pump for the old holley EFI. It's 1 thing that may be a pain to get in stock and will leave me stranded. It's fairly old, used by a previous owner, has been run hot when I had recirc issues. I just don't trust it. I have a spare fan belt. I have my tool bag and oil, etc. The other worry is my old as dirt tires. Weather checked but not many miles on them. I plan to replace them and the wheels next spring if I get my bonus. They seem to be ok, but I constantly check them. I don't carry a spare, or a jack. I would just call for a tow if needed.

I don't expect problems. I do try to plan for them and avoid them where I can afford to do so. Last years trip went pretty smooth and a few of the issues I had then have been taken care of. The stereo and interior have been upgraded. New front suspension and steering components, new water pump and alternator. New lower stance to bang speed bumps on.
