Sounds good to me. I consider Edgewater my home track. I used to race all the UMTR Stick Shift races down there since they started back in 03-04.

Here's me spotting the "Granny Goose" and no I did not red light.

Here's Dad and crew at the '79 U.S. Nationals after they won D/S.

Head CCs a few tenths to the good now! About to add oil and fire it back up with the new cams in the next hour or so!

Car running.. For a cpl minutes. Cams are back out.. Lifters were a little too noisey. Should be a quick fix...

Everything is back together.. But now m mom is in the hospital. Not quite sure whats up yet. Think its juts chest pains which are under control now and they are just testing. She is a young lady at only 48 but we almost lost her a few time a few years ago to Cancer. She has all sorts of weird issues probably left over from chemo and radiation. But so far so good on no cancer for 4 years. Hopefully all is fine..

Moms out of hospital, cams sound bad ***, good compression, slick are fitted nice in the fenderwells. Should be legal and fast! I for see some late night testing on some roads in.. .Ummm Mexico if you see any videos.

Glad to hear your mom is doing well Jimi. Good luck at Indy, it is a great experience. I used to race with your dad at Tri State & Edgewater back in the '90s. Does he still have his blue Challenger that he raced back then?
Keep us posted on your progress , it's great to see someone building their own stuff at home the way it used to be done.
