      My brother gave me a dash mount Auto Meter SportComp. So it will be on the dash. I tried to make it a dash mount, wasnt pretty.

                Stripped my neighbors engine down to the short block, made a list of the things I need at summit thursday.
                Forgot my camera, will take pictures when I stopped to put all of the pieces back on.

                Mike, the guy bought the car from, gave me a set of killer valve covers. He still owes me rocker arms

                      Was installing a new oil pump and the pickup. was using a torque wrench when installing the pickup to the pump, Snap. the oil pump casting broke at the mounting for the pickup. ^@#$%@#$^@#$%@^

                        Do you have another one?
                        No, getting another one, I am using just a standard volume. Last one was a Melling, so not like I used some import piece of crap.

                          That panel is industrial chic. :D

                          Bad ass!

                            New oil pump is on. Just have to go get correct length push rods.

                            Mocked everything else up.

                                those valve covers are some serious pieces!

                                Sorry to hear of the oil pump breakage -- maybe time to have the torque wrench calibrated?
                                There's always something new to learn.
