Ah...but you aren't getting paid for doing nothing.
Currently, you are getting paid for sitting there whackin' your...

Are you ex-military, I ask as one who has done work similar the ex-Army I worked with were either supremely calm if they were NCO or lower officers, hyper like you are if they were a Captain or higher. That was how you tell them apart (Staff Sergent I knew blew like a volcano akin to you here). Cheer up you could be in my place, how's the Mustang!

I was enlisted. I just want to get the job done. I took a personality test at a previous hjob, and it determined I'm an "implementer" (don't bother me with minutia - tell me what you need and let me do it).

It's putting out 439rwhp/454rwtq. It stops making power and goes lean at 5600 rpm. I think it might be that we're exceeding the capability of the OEM fuel pump.
I posted a pic of the car recently on a car forum with the caption, "Chuck Norris? Never heard of her..."

AN-6 (3/8-inch ID), which should be more than large enough. It went lean and stopped making power at 5600 RPM. Tells me that we might be starving the float bowls. Gotta put it back on the dyno to see...
In the interest of completeness, we converted the OEM dead-head fuel system into a return-type fuel system (also using AN-6 line).
We also used a fuel pressure regulator to nect the pressure down from 55psi to 6.5. We could probably increase the pressure a little (to 7psi), but the higher we set it, the more likely it is that at lower speeds, we'll be overpowering the needle/seat in the float bowl and pushing fuel out of the overflow tubes on the carb (most carbs can't handle much more than 7psi).

Just say no to fuel injection.

Based solely on the information provided in your original post...
I would quit. The older I get, the less tolerant I am of childish games. So far the company I work for now, doesn't play that many games.

I'm gonna wait until after the first of the year to make the appropriate plans.

On the other elephant, JSOP's been churning through a lot of short term jobs recently, too many sub-year positions on your resume is problematic.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I wish we had a rule of 'no MCSA - no database'...

If the job requires a lot of advanced DB knowledge, I agree. This job does not. In point of fact, they're using SQL 2008R2 (and were just upgraded to that in April 2014). The 2008 tests are no longer available, and the 2012 tests are on deck for elimination, so even if I get MCSA, 60% of it is useless (in terms of database features).
