So was that an attempt to increase dwell at TDC? I had heard of pistons having their pin location off center but not rods. Am I too old to learn (or...

On backwards in regards to the non-chamfered edge of the rod up against the fillet on the journal?...

Nice addition to the family. Spool in a pickup - that might be interesting on damp roads

boB - I believe you are much more familiar with Key West than I am. In the historic district, are there conventional hotel/motels or is it mostly Airbnbs?...

[cstmwgn]

Well that is a bummer - so IF you drive down you could always stop at Cafe Risque in Micanopy FL. It appears to still be open and is conveniently just...

I used this stuff on a bunch of rusted nasty 50 year old truck hardware and it did amazingly well on the steel stuff and didn't seem to hurt the aluminum....

[cstmwgn]

That does sound good especially, if it includes boB manning the grill! I will play fisherman (I am sure that there is a fish store somewhere that I can...

Well they let Jethro and Elly May in Beverly Hills so you could do fine in South Beach (I have never been so I don't have a clue)

WOW George - where to start?

The thought of you lying on the beach (in shorts / bathing suit) would send me to the tint shop to get a lemo...

[cstmwgn]

As you know - it is a drive to get here from Michigan. You will probably spend more time getting here and back than you spend here. Anyway, if/when...

[cstmwgn]

George, this is a tough one for me. If you just wanted to drive (minimal stopping) then you can get from Tampa to Key West in a day easy. If you wanted...

At one point, that was our plan to get to Deadwood but when some local stuff in Michigan got cancelled we switched to Yellowstone, Grand Tetons and Pike's...

Well, I may not be the best tour guide for Florida as most of the time when we go somewhere it is north of here. With that said, we like to snorkel so...
