Mike@440Source OP member Joined: Dec 2022 Posts: 94 Carson City	Well guys, it's been a hot minute since I last checked in here, but I am back at my desk and ready to sell some parts. I parked the computer last June in favor of my toolbox and decided to go flat-rating again, but if I had a nickel for every time in my career that I've heard "We are so backed up" and "We have so much work, you will never run out", I'd be rich. Besides, there's something about working on hybrids and electric cars that just doesn't excite me. I'm looking forward to helping you with your next engine build. Happy New Year to all of you! Gasoline forever... Mike @440 Source Last edited by Mike@440Source; 01/04/24 08:10 PM.

I'm using our conversion spool mounts for the A-body, and will build the brackets coming off the K-frame. Need to mount the Kirkey buckets, plumb the fuel system, wire it, etc, and there is a mountain of fab work to do. Love the quote in your profile, BTW. I need to remember that one. Mike
