    my current status is an assload of new parts, in boxes, in the dining room. If work didn't run me from 3a to 4p today, I'd be pretty stoked. There may be noises from the garage tonight yet. I believe one of the boxes has an A/C bracket for a 351... but it's starting to cool down here, and 400 miles at 90 degrees is a freaking walk during FALL down here! lol.

    I say that with my thermometer poking at 99 right now. Y'all send positive thoughts for cooler weather, I wanna see the bad boy rides at their best. grin.

      There is a strong, cool nightime breeze in Phoenix this PM...a brief respite from the horrid heat of mid-day, I'd say the gods are with me!

                        I red your HR bio story, you realize that claiming 437 cu.in. You have moved yourself into te big block classes? I wouldn't know but I hear there are some pretty quick BBC's coming this year.

                            Yeah, modified N/A we get to run with them big injuns. I just want to finish, car is not really optimised anyway, it has a nitrous converter that is gonna kill 60fts

                              I'm down to tuning carbs and insulating interior, or lack of it. I did put exaust under the car instead of next to the cowl so I wont go deaf this year. Its still loud but will be past the passenger area. Now just counting down the days trying to concentrate on work till we hit the road sat morning, and hoping Bulletproof isnt doing a raindance this year.
                              Go ahead, pull my finger.
