I'm wearing eye protection, a t-shirt wrapped around my face and a ball cap, and it still finds its way into my skin, stings a bit, but water neutralizes instantly so it only bugs me for as long as it takes me to find a water source.

No, the Blower Finish has been a rather large issue for me so I'm very happy to be getting it taken care of

Other things that need to be done:

minor exhaust rework, re-coat(maybe)
wiring harness finished up
fuel system plumbed and wired up
8 rib pulley conversion (P/S pulley is @ ATI getting re-worked)
driveshaft installed
front end re-assembled
Blower re-installed/plumbed

that's about it
