Yey, my jaw hit the ground when he took the cover off. Couldn't believe it. In person, it was like , WOW! How much again? Jjokin but man, still can't believe this. I get the title today and she'll be home. Excited is the word for today for me and her!
Talk with you all later!

She knows her engine accessories, intakes, etc, etc.... so , I'm kind of well, f'ed..... She want's a big ol' cam and some different wheels already....It's like her plan of makeup for it.... Anyway.... Ya know what I'll be doing for a couple of weeks....UGH!

I've talked her into keeping it stock, all she wants is a small lopey cam. That's all she wants , along with maybe some wheels, but keep the originals. I can't wait to work on it this weekend. You guys have a good one.

Just thought I'd show ya pics and a vid of this weekend.... I was off Friday, and so the madness began. Dee(wife) helped tear down and build this one also. Same as my Turbo engine. Anyway. I had a bunch of stuff from preexisting cars to use, so, well, we used them. Pete Jackson gears, Crane Energizer cam, MSD distro, Holley performer, lifters, and I paid for a new alternator and a new water pump, oh, and the chrome valve covers, not expensive ones either. I had a couple of air cleaners laying around so, anyway. Here's the updates, my wife is a comedian, so just listen for the AVON joke. This is why me and her get along so good....GOOD HUMOR! HA!
