Ron! I waved at you and you flipped me the bird! I just figured that, being a Mopar guy, you were mad at me too.

Welcome to the club.

Well, as of this morning, the LD340 has been removed from the guide for the 71 car. Just 68-69-70 to go NHRA!

Ron Ortiz · 02-09-2017, 11:17 AM

Billy, so it was you there at the beach. And I did not flip you the bird, I used all five fingers as a group gesture. No, I am not mad at you for what ever reason people are mad at you for. You mentioned a manifold for the 273, I do not have it as I prefer good old fashioned iron. (plus I didn't know about it).

Being that you are good at removing certain components from the "guide" and considered a leading pioneer guru of independent thinking, what is the chance of you getting rid of the FFFords that are in U/SA.

Now, let's get back to the meat of this thread, what about that beer.

As of this morning, NHRA has taken delivery of 200 Teenie Tiny Little Bitty 3" total height Walley's for Pomona as participation tropheys. Everybody who shows up gets one. Eliminations have been cancelled. Also anyone who qualifies below the index will automatically lose two items previously approved by NHRA such as reinstall the back seat, reinstall stock brakes, reinstall factory radiator, reinstall camshaft with factory casting number, install real hydraulic lifters with correct travel (sorry Cliff Sherman), return to 4 " Atlas Bucron tires (if you don't know about those, you are too young to post anyway) on factory steel wheels (must remove hubcaps), remove roll cage, reinstall factory exhaust manifolds and exhaust system with stock mufflers only, and I will allow my fascinated friends to continue the saga. We might as well get everything at once.

So, do you get a full Wally or a Jeff Teuton Teenie Tiny Little Bitty 3" Wally for your efforts?

Ron Ortiz · 02-09-2017, 12:18 PM

Well Jeff, it appears that the only things I need to do now are to flip rear seat back up, get steel rims and Atlas tires, put exhaust manifolds & mufflers on, and I'm good.

About those participation trophies, are they the same color as the big ones, or are they that cheap plastic crap. I'll bet you next year they give out cheap plastic medallions instead of trophies to cut expenses.

Now, what about that beer?

Amazing thread, will it make it to 20 pages???? I love stock and super stock, but stock hasn't been "stock" for WAY TOO LONG. Don't hate me, just my 2 cents.
