  • I hope I make it. I thought my engine sounded pretty decent in the short time I ran it last weekend. I had to do the family thing Sunday and Monday. I fired it up today,and it sounded like crap. My friend who built my engine came by,and backed off on the valves a little. It was already sounding better before we quit for the night. Gonna set the final timing tomorrow,and work on my shift linkage too. I need to do some test driving Saturday,but we're supposed to have really terrible weather i.e. possible tornados.

    Everyone be safe and have fun. Wish me luck!

    I just want to add that a large part of the area that the tour will pass through Monday has been hammered by storms and flooding. The area just North of Mena,Arkansas where Brodix and Street and Performance has experienced heavy rains and storms. The Sheriff of Scott County Arkansas and a Game Warden lost their lives in the floodwaters Thursday night.
