On Friday during my lunch break, I went by the machine shop & picked up the heads from the 350 I got from N2TRUX. They required only minor refreshening & the bill for everything was only $200 so I was happy. I worked from 4:30a ~ 9:00p & then my GF picked me up to go see a movie. I went back by work after the show to pick up my truck & tie up some loose ends. I didn't get home until about 1:30a Sat. so it was a long day.

I was on call this weekend so sure enough @ 5:30a Sat morning my phone starts ringing (so much for sleeping in ). I went in to work until about 3:00p & then went home & fell asleep on the couch for an hour or so. My GF woke me up around 6 because she had invited some of her friends over to shoot some pool (our first official pool party on the new table) so I had to get cleaned up & ready.

I slept in this morning after a late night & watched some football this afternoon. In between, I trial fit the tilt column going in my 68 during the 6cyl/3spd to V8/auto swap & played around w/the proper positioning of the swap meet bucket seats I got a while back.

I also moved a bunch of stuff to the newly rented storage unit so I'm made some progress in the garage clean-up (I can easily walk thru the garage now ).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
