That is why I left that God Forsaken place in 86 and moved to AZ . You don't have to live there !!!

Not much new to add. We decided the rocker geometry could be improved a bit, so a new set of Trend pushrods were ordered and plopped in. Will drop it back in over the next couple of weeks. Spring can't get here quick enough!

The next stocker project? On second thought.........

The cool factor alone would be enough on that Corvette>

OLD INJUN: The Corvette is still here, as of this morning. The only change is that now the passengers side door is flappin' in the breeze.

Motor in the Nova thinks it's working at that famous burger place in your neck of the woods.....In-N-Out.

Some.....errrr....adjustments are needed so new headers will be happy, happy, happy.

Stay thirsty, my friend.

A new set of headers meant changing the steering box out for an early Camaro unit.

Just waiting for opening day.

Looks war ready to me Alan! I'll have the Camaro back in Stocker form hopefully before the end of the season.

Matt and Jason at Victory Engines managed to breathe some new life into it. Initial runs were in 3600-3800 air (corrected).
