You might try Burns Stainless for your exhaust stuff.

Unfortunately,no one carries a collector like I need. I'll have to have it custom built.
With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. -- RFC 1925

Fred, they do, but Vince at Burns  is on vacation for another week!


Hey- The cam showed up!

This is a monster grind, by Bullet Cams. .525 lift, 280 duration- huge for a flathead!
Joe Paneck did the billet blank.

That's a big bump for a long, three bearing cam.  Specs?

Be gentle at the strip - I expect to take a closer look at this in August.  :-D

Does your wife know that you took her plant trellis for the project?  Tony

Hopefully she doesn't use it to grow green beans or cucumbers :-o

What color is that red?! If my Tudor is not black it may be a dark red.

The pic is decieving, Trent. It was cloudy out, but the color is bright red. In fact, it's called 'Bright Red'! It's just an enamal paint.

Years ago I painted my '72 El Camino Viper red. Best red I have ever used. Give it a look when making your choice.

Oh yeah, I painted the Rally wheels yellow. Only three peopl liked the wheels, the guy I paid, the painter and me. I did get a bunch of thumbs up though. Joanie gave me so much flack that I ended up repainting the wheels body color.
