I'm going to have to mis you guys again. My long story is that my car is back in the shop. When I had it smogged in December one side was dirtier than the other. I had know that since about Thanksgiving the car had not been running right so I had it looked at and the valves for the #5 cylinder were frozen. It appears that during some accleration I must have missed a gear and over reved the engine. After a lot of thinking about it I took the car over to Tom Lucas in Sacramento. Luckily the engine was fine just some broken parts. But he UT'd the block and found the thicknesses was too thin. Anyway a new block, with some engine improvemnts, (including a rev limiter) and as they say, just another two weeks.

See you all soon.
