yea, its I just took my third shower of the day. Not typical but required.

#1 after working on the car, rolling around on the ground in rust-dust and applying grease to the bushings for the 67... shower required.

#2 after mowing the yard. I figured this would be the last.

#3 after cutting 3 trees down in the back yard. I would have cut more but I bent the chain saw bar. Damn tree fell the wrong way and I had to RUN! Looks like I will be needing a new 18" bar.

Me too. I'll have to ask QwkSS that question. Hopefully Tracy finished it up today. Don't worry, there'll be posts with pics. I'm sure Craig will post the videos too. I'm not doing a custom tune, just the packaged tune from Edelbrock. Next year I can go all out with the headers, intake and custom tune. One step at a time. Before that I'll be researching a total suspension package. One that can help on the dragstrip, track courses like Mid Ohio and still drive everyday on the highway. If there is such a thing.

Glad it was only the chain saw that got damaged. Carefull with those trees! I know a few people that have been hit when dropping trees. All had broken parts, their parts!!

Thanks. Yea, even if the bar didnt bend, I was done. It was getting dark and I was in shorts and flip flops... STUPID STUPID STUPID!

I cut the knotch out and start cutting the other side, then it started to go, the saw got stuck and it started to roll funny, I bolted.

I know... thats what the guys are work wear when cutting but I don't own any of that. I did have safety glasses and gloves on!

When I cut up the wood I will at least wear more appropriate attire, like jeans and boots at minimum!

hey jrhaus, now is the time to install those sways on the 67.



and a update on my rims... still, almost there. No, they are not on, but you wait, they will be by the end of the year.

Got the replacement rim, it sat in the garage for about 10 days before I had a chance to get it put on. Got to the tire place, opened the box, WRONG RIM... then back home, start over. I know, my fault for not checking with it arrived.

The fun part is, they insisted they sent the right rim, so I took some pictures of the three pretty rims (all black) and the one they sent me "Black with chrome face". aaaaaaawwwwww. Sorry, I can't help but laugh at how long this is taking.

Good News, MYBAD SS is running again!!

MYBAD SS

Bad News, I can't view the video here at work, so I'm headed home.

They said it pulled around 465 rw. That's a 110 hp gain.

No whining, no pulley noise, total sleeper.

(except for the plate)

Darth, it is wrapped.. They wrapped up to the lip on the panel. You really can't see that they didn't wrap the lip unless your looking real close. I'll check tonight to see if it affects the color of the light.

110HP with a STOCK air cleaner, manifolds and a no name exhaust (Sounds killer in person!) and Edelbrocks tune. Pretty Cool!!

I think he's saying there's room to grow

So, a smaller pulley, Roto-Fab, 1 7/8 LTs, 3" exhaust and a special custom Cincy tune..........another 90 hp????
