thanks Ron, just to update you guys, the other block will be here Friday, 1 motor is in the car and the heads are being mounted tonight.
Plumbing will be finished by Thursday, we'll do the side windows, add new logo, pick up floaters and finish the body clean up on Saturday, and fire her up on sunday,
Then we can start loading after we service and make sure everything is on the up and up.
God willing, we'll ge a full night sleep on Monday LOL
I'll keep ya posted.

Sounds great. Scott and I were assembling our heads last night. The other set is on the shelf ready to run. Then the other 2-sets are machined and sitting there bare if we need them.
It sounds like you will make heat before I do, but we are pretty close also.
Best of luck!!

Always good when they start on the first crank in the spring. Never had it happen yet - but it's nice
Have a good time down south (from me anyway...)

Randy,
4 sets of heads to run 20%? You will need a tractor-trailer if you go 95%

Art, I subscribe to the belief, that "If your parts know you have some on the sideline waiting to play in their place,,,,they never give out on ya!"
Good Luck Nancy!!

Randy,
Sounds like a plan, though a bit expensive. Four sets of heads, probably two short blocks, gee, I am getting dizzy from the heights.
Good luck in hotlanta, Nancy. Weather is gorgeous here abot 230 miles to the Northeast, hope it's the same there.

Nancy ,
Congrats
on making the show at Atlanta and the .90 with the nice mph!
Looked to me like a pretty good outing out of the box and I'm sure your team took a lot away from the weekend.
Making a TAFC ot TAD field at a nat'l is quite an acomplishmen these days.
