It's a complete running engine, minus the MSD box and thermostat housing.

A friend that owns a parts store and machine shop says wait in about a month, when people start getting their income tax money back, people start spending. That holds true with our sprint cars to hobby stocks as well. He gets real busy then and when warmer weather gets here.

Bob, I agree, let's hook up for the Run & Gun.
And I'll hire you to be the mud-dobber on the sprint car. !

Kevin........been there done that........
my cousins built sprint cars for years and a friend of ours
held the track record at Placervill Speedway for several years
before someone broke it............
we raced at Placerville,Chico,and Baylands and ran with
the Outlaws several times......I'm no stranger to sprint cars....or mud

as for Run-n-Gun i should be there and i think Bob Kallio is going to be there also
at least thats what he said when i talked to him last weekend.

and if we twist TTG's arm hard enough just maybe he will show up also...

I SOLD MY ENGINE. Now I can build MY DREAM ALUMINUM SIDE OILER !
WOO-HOO !



Can you tell I'm a little excited !

Well,....almost a perfect dream engine. The only other part that would complete it would be the electronic stacked EFI. Too bad I can't afford that.

Anyway, I can't wait to get started.
