4 banger and a header also, a custom drive shaft mated with the MG yoke and an auto trans, an MG v8 rad with a trans cooler also........

I told him it would be a great car show car but he said the MG guys would look down for what he did to it........But it's pretty freaking cool.....

Wasn't an option for ups lol, I personally hate fedex, on normal deliveries they delivery very late here and for stuff that needs a signature they hardly even try.

What about the fact you paid for overnight delivery? If you did, I think you should be getting a small refund.
