Default The Black Widow LT5 Story (complete)

OK Gang,
I finally broke into the archives and put something together you might find interesting. Even made me call Rippie....man I HATE doing that....:-))
OK, full Black Widow Story may be news to even some owners!
Go to the website, look under my blog for "The Black Widow Story" and you can either view or download the story for eternity. All my good stuff and some previously never known info.
Dave, feel free to use it on your site if you like.

Very nice.

Now can you get us some more info on the 300lbs savings.
Where/what did they remove or do?
