So I went to the Summit Racing website earlier to order a set of intake manifold bolts, right?  Well, while I was there I looked at some of the other things I had in my “Wish List.”  One of those things was an electric water pump drive kit.  I'd shown it to John on Monday and asked his opinion.  He was not against the idea.  I shot him a text today asking if we otter gopher it since I was placing an order.  He talked me out of it so I decided on a set of chrome valve covers instead.  I put them in the cart.  I then asked, “PCV or vent to atmo?”  He confirmed my thinking that V2A was cleaner æsthetically but that PCV was cleaner environmentally.  I decided that since a) I already capped off the vacuum ports in the manifold and 2) one vented cap and one PCV cap would never match properly, I would just get two vented caps… environment be damned!  I put them in the cart.  The last thing I put in the cart was a set of valve cover gaskets and I was ready to check out.  I got all the way to the point where I was to enter my credit card information when I remembered my Summit card is in my dresser at home.  I clicked “Cancel Order” and filled out the “Why are you cancelling this order?” survey.  They didn’t have a box for “I forgot that I didn’t have my credit card on me” so I had to ‘splain it in the comments section.  I plan to place the order this evening and hopefully the parts will be here for this coming Saturday.  Well, that story didn’t take anywhere near as long as I'd hoped.  Well, since I have to go pee and pick up a projector, I think I'll call this rant complete for the day.
