every time i would call my step dad, the conversation would always start, Hey, I have a question. On this one perticular day, he must have been in a bad mood or something and responded with "you always have a f^%$ing question" so when Fathers day rolled around I sent him a card(which i never do for anyone for any reason) and wrote in it " if i need advise, should i ask my father or the person who acted like my father"
my Mother called to tell me that was very nice of me to do.
Well, same thing with Dan, he never fails to answer the phone even though he knows a tech question is comming his way. It has been a long time since I have spent any money with him and yet he is there to help me or someone I'm trying to help every time I need it.
If i had deep pockets I would have him building me a short block just like Deepockets just built but I just dont have it but maybe someday I will again
Thanks Again Dan

Very cool story. As a stepdad myself, I can see how relationships are like a roller coaster ride.
In the past Dan and I haven't agreed much, but it seems as time goes on we actually agree more and more....nice to have him on the board for sure!! Brian

Hey John, last year when we moved the shop, we moved it to Delray Beach, remember? now where's that oil pan???????
Ray, I did build that turd under the hood (when it's on the car)of your Challenger. like i told you the other day, if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to call. i'll help if i can.
for everyone else that posted, thanks for the kind words. i must admit, i'm feeling very humbled right now.

after you told me about my nitrous jetting, next pass i almost did a hemi fred and put on top of the wall. so the challenger is retired from the track.
building a very cheap wall car. plus Cab Burge said he was going to come out here and run me over so its going in a a body so i could be light like him

must be looking for some 9 sec. passes. shouldn't be a problem in a nice light a-body. glad i could help on the nitrous issue. too much power for you to handle once you made the change we talked about, or just take you by surprise?
