Bob - technically it's an engine build as Norm has now decided to start with another block and build from there, then put my heads/cams on. He has crank back from being ground and is sending it to be nitrated. There are various combintaions of rods & pistons for him to choose and the final combination will determine how much he bores - somewhere around 20 over should end up right at 4.0 litre.I will be curious to see how it dynoes. I am really missing my cruising time and after the car sat for 5 1/2 months last year, if it is as strong and runs as well as expected I will probably not run the nitrous. I really don't want to have to go through this again. I believe Rebecca's position is a liitle stronger than that. I am sure John Davies ande Marc will do their best to convince me otherwise by the time we get to Woodward! It will probably be done in 10 days but since I have a meeting at Navy Pier on April 21 I will wait until then to pick it up. Is it a possiblity that you could pick me up at the McHenry Train station and drive me to Norms if I catch train after my meeting? Thanks for asking. Marty

I wouldn't do anything like that Marty? Just be happy for you to have your car back. Been awhile again I guess.

I thought Gary Archer was doing that everytime I travel. Everytime I come home from an extended business trip there is more of his beer (IceHouse) in the refrigerater - go figure.
