I not going to say I’m sad, but that was one hell of an off season.

After not porting for customers for 4-5 years I took on a no rush job last summer. He was patient and had to be as I was on a mission to race every weekend and did into November. Then I took another job then another all winter long. At one point I had three jobs sitting here which I promised myself I wouldn’t do. I took three jobs in March after I said I was done as I had to get on my duster. Well I finished the last set of Speedmaster heads a few days ago and finished his Victor340 tonight. Valve job and blending tomorrow then both go on my flowbench. Hopefully I will be on my duster late this week and racing the weekend after. Man do I have some shop cleaning to do.

This is what happens when you are a good person that wants to help other racers. Good for you but time to get on your own projects, we need more wheels up pictures!

Thank you sir. Most of the winter went fine but I did burn out a couple times. I lost 25 pounds late last year and kept most of it off until March when my knees were killing me and I put a few back on. Gotta get on that real fast. I’m looking forward to new projects for awhile and hopefully after I get my black duster track worthy can put a few hours in on my big block car. I’d love to at least make some NA passes this year.

Talking you out of your project just made sense and this customer took your time slot. By time you bought heads from me, bought valves, paid for my work, and shipping to the west coast it just wasn’t worth it for you. I can mainly help guys that have heads already or get stuff drop shipped to me. Or of course the local guys. I hope you all have a great summer. The Speedmaster deal saved guys money too as I passed on most of the savings.
