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.

Oh come now.... I've got to keep my mechanical aptitude in check somehow don't I? The maiden voyage was rather 'Titanic' if I may say so myself. It's been trouble free ever since so I'm looking forward to another road trip (have you met my good friends?? If so you'll understand I'm a glutton for punishment).

Based on your last trip, I only have one thing to say. You better start early... :p

I don't think our Rowlett boys are coming down. It looks like they are saving up for Goodguys....

CRRoy71, That would be cool. You might be better off just assuming I am young and handsome though.

It looks great. It would look better if you would quit breathing on the lens before you take a pic

Don't think I ma being a smart @SS when I ask this. Is that white primer, or paint? From the pics, I can't really tell...

LOL! I can not believe we have not met yet. I guess your house is as busy as mine. Running kids all over, running erands, doing yard work, going to work, etc......etc.......etc.

We can get together before this show at Houston, and either follow each other up, or meet up there. I am looking forward to it. I am off that Sat and Sun, but have to work that Fri.

I thought so, but it laid on nicely, so it was hard to tell. Personaly I like the white red (orange) combo. I think it looks classic...

Ok, so lets try and organize a meet.
I for one am going, I will start making a list, and I guess towards the end of next week I will e-mail everyone my cell phone number so we can find a place to meet.

This is so far who I have on the list.

I might try to go if I have time. I put the 77 in detail mode, and it's going to take a while. I spent all day on it today, and feel like I'm just getting started....
