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.

Sorry to hear about that... glad to hear you were able to find a new employer so quickly.

Hope to see you back in KS next year, and with the Riv or the truck?

Re: Air baggin a Buick Riviera

Completely done (for now), it runs and drives like a dream. I'll update this thread later when I get the E-leveling system.




Thanks for all the compliments guys, I appreciate it. As far as the job situation goes the Chevy dealership seems to be working out fine, thanks for all the concern.
