got a pic of that pan??
Not sure what you mean....there are three pictures in my earlier post. Is there something specific you would like to see? I just might have a picture that shows it.

I think he's talking about the drip pan
Oh....you are probably right. I forgot that I mentioned that earlier. I will have to take some since none exist on my computer.

Brian I tried to PM you but this site wont let me. Are you attending the bracket finals at Ennis or the all door car race at Crandall on 10-8? It would be nice to see your car and BS with you a bit. I'm planning on attending those 2 races. Maybe we'll see you there
I plan on coming to Crandall for the all door car deal.
I apologize...my PM's were at their limit.

Continuing the update. I need to speed this up. Shortblock complete. Checking the rocker arm height. It is .100 low with the old shims. We sunk the valves about .030 to clean up the screwed up valve job....I wonder if it was .070 off before I took it apart? Maybe this is what wore the guides out so quickly? Racing engines don't have to be ugly! I had the valve covers Hydro dipped and they look great. Getting everything dialed in!

You better hurry up Brian. Winter's coming.
I guess it's a good thing that we don't get very much winter down here.
