Re: Fenton Headers
Will jacking up the front of the motor a couple of inches facilitate getting the left header on?

Re: Parts prices are killing our hobby
We can piss and moan, but it's hard to disregard the passion. It all becomes part of the game and you can choose being in or out. I remain "in". I know the rules and it's pay to play, but sometimes...

Re: Just how dumb was I?
Had a friend offer me his '68 Shelby KR500 for what he owed on it. That was $1300. Heck, I didn't want a Mustang for THAT kind of money! Back when the dinosaurs roamed the earth. Gotta' just keep...
