Oil return line off a Nextel cup car came today!

The grey socks are available at Kohl's department stores nationwide.

Hopefully less than a month before the key turns. I dont want to throw a solid date out because I honestly never know when I have time to work on it with my buddies until about a day before we do. But, after this weekend, the turbo kit will look more like a kit than individual pictures of pieces.
