We are still thrashing away at this thing, trying to get it finished. This new Hemi has thrown us a few curves, but, they are getting straightened out. The headers are being made tomorrow, and than it comes home, where I get to pull a few all nighters to finish it up. I am going to deserve some sort of award if I get this heap there. (Trust me, it is NOT for a lack of trying) Back at it...

Just so you guys know, I'll have a bunch of BB and SB roller lifters to look at in Vegas. I'll have just pieces, since they are running more and we're out of sets. But stop by the trailer in the pits and I'll show them to ya. We'll have some BBQ too!! Brian

I'll be there. Just finished putting the Lance camper on the back of the Ram
I just did the same exact thing, Put my LANCE on the back of my dually. They dont leave much clearance on those huge dually sides. I am now used to it.
I am packed and almost ready to go.Just need to fill the camper with water.

I found it goes much faster for me without my wife's "help"

Well if nothing else looks like dialing on Sunday could get interesting.

As much as it makes me , I will not be making it to MATS. I do not have enough time to get the car ready, and, I certainly am not going to rush anything with this new motor. I am really bummed that I won't be there, as I have been planning on this since last year, but, it is the right call. Good luck to all of you, and be safe.

Don't feel bad. I wasn't too sure if I was going to make it either...! I was going to use this last weekend to get everything organized, you know...no rushing! Well, my wife found a car for my daughter up in Santa Margarita so we drove up there Friday nite, left the dealership around 11:15 at nite, got lost (inlaws directions), finally made it to Huntington beach (inlaws trailer), couldn't get in the parking lot (a whole nother story). Got home the next day and was tired, so I figured I would get some stuff done around the house and dedicate the whole day Sunday to the car. Get up Sunday, take my wife to Yard House for brunch, get a call from inlaws saying there POS Yukon just lost the fuel pump on their way back home. So we have to go up there and drag their trailer back down here, and by that time...there was no time for the car....there was but I was tired and I thought the car would be no problem.... Turned out, my batteries went to crap....but hey, after some diagnostics I can finally say I should be there and ready to race!! Brian
