  1. Gay!







    The only reason it's on the road is because I bolted on the shifter.

    Congrats Josh, do I see a grin on your face in one of the videos?
    I can't wait to see this one at Run What Ya Brung, if not before then.
    Robert.

    I'm glad you made the effort to unchannel it.

    I like it brother,I like it!

    Wish I could have been in town for the initial "smoke test",

    but we just got back from Arizona last night.

    Zero humidity.
    Zero mosquitoes.
    Damn near NO light pollution!
    Most relaxing,chillin' in the desert evening looking at the stars!

    Enough of that!
    Can't wait to see it at Dixie Fried!

    If it's an MSD box, we have a set of 11,000-12,000 rpm chips in the garage that we save for special occaisions.

  7. bring that over!! I bumped it up to 6.5 and it was way better. the rev limiter starts a little early according to the tach

    Tonight I saw 6300 on a couple shifts and about 8 psi - it was good :) front end dropped like 3 inches when I let off. that was cool!!! bias and brakes are intersting at high speed!

    new video will be required


    still needs a new cam

    the shifter is still tight! thanks Barbarino.
     

  8. see you Chuckster - Glad you had a good trip. hey - we need some more of that bacon wrapped stuff!! scallops not required.

    thanks DRuss!

    It's long journey from 6500 to 11,000 and it's littered with broken rods, cranks, etc. I've never made it.

    I think it's best we just look at those chips and make engine noises.
     
  15. I was just kidding!! here is the man that can go 10K http://www.youtube.com/user/nitrocl

    ha ha!!

    that rev limiter is built into my retard box and I like it!! I thought it would be cool to pull up to the line and floor it BAP BAP BAP BAP BLAM!
     
  16. Thanks to Laydrag!! Russ cleared it last night and I have it to mount tonight. The scallops and part of the cowl will be that color and the rest of the car is planned to be the same gold that's on it. Russ got a gallon of gold color matched. I have lots of work to do first though!
     
  17. There's the money shot right there...
