Jim, its a 396ci and the last time in it ran 9.56 but that was with gas... I'm going to run it on E-85 this time
That is plenty fast. Not a big deal, IMO.
Yeah Jim, I'll be happy with it if it all works right

... well I decided to put my back up W-2 back in...
That's a great idea! It'll be a better 'mule' motor. Take your time in this heat. When you planning on going out next?

Mike,if I wasn't getting the X ready to race this week-end I'd be over there giving you a hand! Still haven't heard what day is the T&T at Ubly! Conflicting info on some Opie race! One person says saturday, another sunday! WTH??? Might end up going to Lapeer when it's all said and done!
I posted in the Lapeer post that Opie is Saturday but thats also TNT day.... I'm about 15 minutes from pulling the W-9.... thanks anyways

They dont race at the fairgrounds, but they do race about 10 minutes away. It is well worth it, you should try to make it. Its a whole different world back there.

Chris... it got alot hotter in there about 2:00 or so... I'm in no rush... plus I'm a retired old guy... it'll be done tomorrow(hopefully running) I should look at the W-9 to see if I can fix the oil leak... or at least find the problem... if I have any problems with the W-2 the W-9 will have to go back in
