[brent flynn]

Thanks to all you guys for your encouragement... it makes me want to start liquidating parts so i can get this goin a little faster... I decided awhile back that i was gonna do this, now all i gotta do is talk to some engine guys and see what everybody's runnin as far as pistons/rods and what kind of valvetrain parts(lifters/rockers/) i should be lookin at. I have a guy that builds stocker stuff up my way... not as much as he used to though. He has built G/SA buick engine(John Kein)...its runnin in the 11.30s right now... he has been doin that one for years...also he used to do the engines for Roy and Mike Mckinney in the 80s and their E/S 4speed car ran 11.40s at best (truman fields' car). Im gonna talk to him and the guys that some of you recommended and see what i can find out. Im really anxious to get started! Thanks again, BRent
