Charleston WV Boulevard Rod Run & Doo Wop October 4-7

Putting this out there for anyone interested in attending the 7th annual Rod Run & Doo Wop. This is a great event with cars from all eras in attendance. Last year there were nearly 1,000 registered cars/trucks for the event. The venue is great as the city of Charleston shuts down Kanawha Blvd which runs along the beautiful Kanawha River. Saw folks there from as far away as California last year. Plan to attend --- You definitely won't be disappointed!!!

Notice your hp. Quick question you running stock pistons and rods? Getting ready to SC my car and I'm hearing anything above 625 need to replace the pistons and rods with forged ones.

Thanks
