Good Morning All!
Morning...
How's things in the PNWR?
Looks great worth the wait.Went and got my generator exhaust flange welded, guy had quite a place. The welder he used isn't pictured but I guess it cost 10k and he says the prices of welders in general have gone through the roof the within the past 8 months. He tig welded it I believe with a 305 stainless rod. Considering how heavy the flange is he mentioned vibration could cause an issue. More on the crazy concrete pad and it's built for use later, I shouldn't have been complaining how long it took me to pressure wash my shop and garage pads/walk.

Looks great worth the wait.

My brother's are rolling in next week so I need to get to the point of doing the alignment since I'll have the extra hands
Just a good morning drive by, truck is loaded and I am ready to head out. I will have a great time in fellowship with like minded creatures and making bang noises all day. All the while going down in a flaming pile of poo! When you win State you get a super cool buckle, you then wear it at ensuing matches to rent space in other competitors heads. The only thing anyone will see from me today even remotely looking like a buckle will be the huge pile of rust at my feet every stage! Hah! I will have a blast tho, it is genuinely a whole lot of fun. You all be safe and have a great day, hydrate man hydrate!
Everything I have and have had in the recent past are all big blocks. The only small block Mopar I had was my first one and that was 50 years agoSo go to the machine shop yesterday to pick up my bushing order, he said he can do the 340 mounts if we give him a example to measure off. He is also going to make some switch parts for Tommy at Parts Hound that rebuilds them. Also making me up a run of custom plates for mounting GM four pin moduales under the distributors, there is one out there but I dont like that it does not have a built in heat sink and a few other things for me also. Pretty cool he will take this stuff on. Have a few pics I will post of some of the older stuff in a few. So now that said who has a set of 340 mounts they can lend me for a few weeks for measurements?

Thank youFor those that may not be aware today is National train a teacher (Educator) day. I feel a wee bit guilty as the rest of my cadre is working while I go play. Our Company (Get Trained Be Ready) is training just over 30 Teachers today for no charge, everything from defensive handgun to basic trauma etc etc. I think the only thing we aren’t offering was LZ training! We were shocked at the response this year once we offered the classes, as typically we get a few but not a lot of attendees. I reckon given the present landscape more teachers are figuring out our training could help save lives. Big shout out to all the trained professionals in many different fields that are donating their time and effort today across this great Nation.
