Sorry to hear about your loss, always a tough time, been there...You have my condolences...

Nice thing about a hobby like we have is that twisting some wrenches or rattle canning a fender can give you time to think/forget...



How do you like your axle tie down straps for the trailer? I picked up a set a few months ago but haven't used them yet.

It can be escape that is definitely true. Turn on the Ipod, grab a beer and do some and makes me forget about all the negatives and BS in the world. The loved one will be missed truly but life will go on. Its a reminder to me that everyday should be lived like my last as it could be gone in an instant. No regrets, many a success and failures I have seen and will continue too. Live life to the fullest and always enjoy with a smile even if your missing a few teeth



As for the tie downs I love them, I cross the back two for lateral stability. I absolutely love them it makes loading and unloading cake

Ive not been working much the last few weeks (its nice to take some time off to enjoy )

I did however get the chance to borrow my Friend Erics rig.

Had a blast and broke some stuff including all six hub studs pass side and and made the bearings loose. Luckily not much more damage done and an easy fix but Thanks again Eric

Not really Ive purchased a new starter from summit racing

I noticed that Summit sells same with AA a more expensive starter that has an offset bolt pattern. My block has both offset and inline bolt patterns. Its something to look into when you upgrade to running the 168th flywheel.

I also purchased a nice and heavy flywheel from my local shop!

I job hunting at the moment and trying to get into school possibly too. Im definitely not done with this project its just at a tough spot right now. Ill update as soon as I can with some pics.

Heres the more expensive starter. Some blocks only have this pattern. Cost difference is about $60
