Default Southern Births Another One


Tomorrow Friday Jan 17, 2003 10:30 AM Lewis will allow my new stoker to breath for the first time ever. I feel like a 7 year old on Christmas eve.
YEEEEEEEEEEE GAAAAAAAAAAADS I can't wait to hear the thing hit a lick

Randy

Can you tell I'm excited - Jeeze it's 4:30 AM and I'm typing a post.

Thumbs up Sweeeet...

I remember the first time my engine drew breath. Susan called me on my mobile and let me hear it over the phone. It was totally cool. It was so loud you could hardly discern anything, but that was okay with me.

MAN, DO I KNOW THE FEELING
Last Friday was my day for the dyno for my all alum. 427. I was so so excited all day just waiting for the results, nothing else seem to matter.
Bottom line: 533HP and 534lb/ft of torque at 5600 RPM.
502 HP @ 6500 RPM max rpm.
Now if I can only figure out which tires to put on the rear to put all these ponies to the road.
Hope you are as happy with your results as I am with mine.

Smallblock Videotip: If you take a video, hold that microphone up real close so we can hear it.

Just kidding, congrats Randy.

For that small block, you might make sure you also have a 10x optical zoom so we can see it clearly.

TC, yep, I figured Susan and Bill might actually never see it. I know if someone brought me a bottle while I was on vacation there would be alot of blank stares and 'uh, what bottle?' around my office when I got back. Perfect..... I am heading down next week to hear mine fire up. Definitely an exciting time. (and my serial number is still lower)

I told Randy to leave a message on my voicmail with the engine runnning in the background and I would post the message as a wav file....and now, through the miracles of modern technology, is the wav file I made from Randy's voicemail>>>(zipped)

LMAO

You got me good you goober That's too damn funny - I'll get your butt

I would have recorded yours but the sound of the stroker crank hitting the side of the block was too much

I did look at your heads - why did you get those tiny little 7/8" intake valves? High RPM

Still LMAO
