I'm acquiring that hairline. I had my first sunburn on my head several years ago. So now I wear a hat whenever I'm in the sun. It means we're more intelligent. Our brain requires more blood than average and the hair follicles suffer.

Chuck, the pulley is an ePay special and as for the distance I just messured the length from the center of the groove to the back on the stock one, did the same on the scrub and the difference is the spacer.  Simple!

Don, I think the cup holder should be in the arm rest.  Soft drinks when I'm driving of course.

Charlie, I actually have a full head (maybe a little thin on the top) it's just grey and short so I don't know where that leaves my brain. BTW, thanks for the help with the clutch and I did get a very nice aluminum radiator, soon to be installed.

I think I may have this engine running this weekend although most of Saturday will be spent at Fomoso with Elwood.  I should have a timing slip with the four barrel and Blue Thunder set-up.  High 9's maybe? We'll see.

Thanks for the info, years ago a buddy had a FED  similar to yours with a 292 sbc, flat tappet cam, and glide went 10.00 all the time, your's should run high 9's I would think. Can we expect video next week?

While you young people are on the subject of sunburn, please take the time too use sunscreen and wear a hat if you are going to be out in the elements. I am paying the price right now for 64 years of ignoring the sun and its effects. I have had two fairly major surgeries this year on the left side of my face and ear including skin grafts. Pretty painful and can lead to more serious problems.

Absolutely. With my mom's history of cancer, I try to remember to always wear sunscreen if I'm going to spend any significant amount of time outside. Women use the sun for "beauty." You can always tell a woman who tanned a lot in her youth. She looks like a dried up piece of leather by her 30s or 40s. I think guys just try to be tough. I see it all the time at the races, guys with no shirt, red as a lobster. It makes me wonder if they realize what they're doing to their self.

After Famoso I even had a little time to work on Jake.  Not  driver yet but I did manage to fire the "D" engine,  I have the radiator mounted better now and as soon as I get the fuel and wiring done you will see him drive down the street.

Are you going to name the LSR truck Jake? Chuck in NH

Y's guys rule!
Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

That thing really (and I mean really!) needs grey/black spark plug wires and boots. Other than that, it looks good.
