Wait til you see the body rise from all the weight loss.

just make sure the cooling system is in good order- you can dump water and not know it because the resulting hot air sans liquid in the cooling system doesn't peg the gauge. i'd recommend some fresh engine mounts too. we were kicking srs ass in '08 for 21 hrs until the engine mounts let go on me (BOOM!!! wtf was that????) and engine shift cut a water hose. finished the race with rehabbed moutns made of threaded rod, big ass washers on one still semi-solid mount and other crumbled/sheared mount was secured with as many worm gear hose clamps as the guys could throw at it.
