Club Member Procrastinators
I just saw this in Sundays paper a cartoon by Doug MaGregor, but it's the caption that is note worthy.
A Notice to All Guests Up North: If you haven't called your Southwest Florida host by now to reserve a room you may be sleeping out on the lanai this Winter. Only 74 days till April 12-14, sign up now so we can count you in at our 2nd annual meeting. As of yesterday I signed up the 222 member to our club. I would like to see and meet each and everyone of you in person, this is the only way, because the space on my lanai is already full. We made this a 3 day weekend to make it worth your time to come from any place in the 8 states that we represent. We can only make our club better if we ALL join in, now is the time. I've BS with many of you on this forum now it's time to meet you face to face. Make your reservations now. Our fellow member Keith has done a great job so far in letting everyone know what is happening. Dan & Jean **) **) **) |

Ultradyne solid roller cam. .667 lift on intake and exhaust and 267@.050 rockers are Jessel shaft mounted and are 1.55 ratio to make up for what you lose in valve adjustment.

Rear gears are\were 3.07 With these gears I ran 10.5's @ 127mph. I've since put in a set of 4.10's but haven't gotten to the track to see a time yet.
