Plus, I ordered a fiberglass dash that weighs just 4 pounds, and I’ve got all the vintage contingency stickers I could ever need lined up. I’m also drawing heavy inspiration for the paint job from these Pro Stocks, so it’s going to look amazing once the new paint and lettering are done."

This is not the update I was hoping to make... I didn't pass my inspection, but I didn't fail it either. There were two super nice officers who explained right as they started they were skeptical they'd be able to complete the inspection. They said they needed to match "secret numbers from the...

That would do it. The polished stainless on the top gets the sun reflecting on it and about blinds me driving down the road.

Damn that sounds tasty.

Folks'll get a kick out you stopping, kid or? dunking bucket into trailer tank, running up and pouring in rad. Leave the cap off, no pressure, less coolant loss, maybe just perch an old funnel in top, pour water in rad. Probably be a big hit, Sounds like fun, Good luck. (Marine pump is...

Not to high jack Justin’s thread but blue print has a 610 hp crate motor offering also @SalC, @Johnny Mac knows all about it

Trust me I definitely understand the general sentiment. But if you're looking at what you would actually feel by the butt dyno, The larger displacement area under the curve difference is huge. In fact I would go so far as to say that even properly geared stalled etc the bigger engine is going...

Fixed...for now. Replaced a couple -ve wire ring terminal ends at battery... The starter and solenoid both seemed to work fine when removed, so if getting proper power, it should work. I figured a terminal replacement may help. I noticed one wire has a decent amount of black junk, so a wire...

At its lowest, about 2” from the ground, I think it will be useful;)

Next weekend.

In the words of Jeremy Clarkson, I did a thing! But seriously, I pulled the dash out tonight. Now I’ve got to decide whether to go with fiberglass or stick with steel. On top of that, I got the new cups fitted to the upper control arms. The car's also scheduled for the chassis shop, so I’ve got...

Too many concerts for me

That's not really how it works.... Modern engines, my foot. (other than that, DemonX2 is 100% right). The key was never designed to carry load, ever. The sprocket bolt that clamps the cam sprocket to the cam is what makes the spinny-magic happen. The clamp load from sprocket to cam is what...

Al, still have the 75 Valiant if you have room while out picking, everything going well with us, tell Theresa hi and stop by sometime, Joe

My new found love. Frozen Salted caramel yogurt bars.:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Finally getting myself squared away after my first drag and drive and realized I don't really have any way to contact the people I met out there this year. So this is a call to all the A body folks who were on Redwood Rally this year, maybe it's best to post what car you were driving, and your...

Hope it tastes as good as it looks

Not sure why you don't like it. It looks like art to me. Artists are their own worst enemy.

That fork-lift attachment is pretty neat, will it go down clear to the ground? I use the crap out of my tractor for lifting stuff with the bucket on the front.

Still using his transbrake but no delay boxes allowed at this race. He only bottom bulb races a couple times a year now. Car number is 3x97 and 3x9 for the weekend. One time trial under each number and 1st round wins.

We dodged it over in the west panhandle also. The Air Force flew all the planes out on Wednesday in an abundance of caution. I saw on the news where a Tesla was under water. Salt water and batteries don't mix well. Prayers for those dealing with the aftermath.

For me everything just seems muffled. Turning up the volume doesn't really help. Got that dang ringing too. I blame not using the hearing protection when using the air blowing gun.

Saw video. We're it mine. I'd take the black solenoid apart, and see why the contact that jumps elec across those 2 big wire contacts isn't jumping. It's usually a big copper washer, sometimes the contact areas just "wear" away, or whatever secures the washer to plunger fails. Often, washer can...

My insurance gave me the finger, compensation board told me it was my own fault and gave me the finger. So I scrounged what I could borrowed the rest 1 1/2 years paid off. Upkeep is minimal, next big cost in 5 years is new battery around $500. But saving up for that day.

Thanks for the thoughts. Great idea about a bilge pump. Unfortunately no one local has one in stock. Yes, I did think about just replenishing as it loses but I was concerned about introducing cold water into the system with the engine hot. I hadn't considered the pump losing prime, but yes, my...

My wife said I had selective hearing because I only herd what I wanted to hear. lol

Good to hear from you Joe ! Someday Theresa & I will have to stop in. How's the married life ! Tell Brenda we say hello !

My first set of hearing aids was 3 grand from the hearing specialist and lost one and it would have been 5 grand to replace and upgrade them. I can't afford it I don't have insurance that will cover the cost. In the States you don't need a prescription anymore and so bought a set by mail and...

It dodged me completely. was hoping for a couple of inches of rain. We got cool weather and rain, hope you don't have damage when you get home, Joe
