I could have responded with something like "Only if we both take our proper Viagra-type tablets" -- but note that I didn't so respond.  It's a personal thing -- no need to discuss it with you preverts.

We will crank it up and run the new gear in on jack  stands. Change the plugs, pull the primary oil filter cut it open if no shiney things we will load up on Thurs and head out Thurs night. A short 10 hour drive and we are ready to have fun!

A call, maybe -- more if there's time.  Our train arrives Friday morning - and the first wedding "event" is big lunch that day.  Sunday afternoon might be slack time -- I'll find out more.  Thanks for the reminder about who lives in that neighborhood.

Do you have wheels while in Denver?  Call Johnboy, he has plenty of rolling stock.  PM me for his number if you need transportation.

Well, hubby's new job may interfere with May's meet. He will need to be on call the same weekend :-( So looks like we will miss this meet. Just gives us extra time to finish the build on the Camaro!
Charles - It definately is different attending the meets without a vehicle. My 1st one was pretty easy. After that I found it to be more difficult. Good luck with the thrash to prepare for next weekend!

Rebecca and I will be leaving Chicago Thursday morning to arrive at the track on Friday afternoon.  We will be running the 1954 BMW R25/3 in the the 250cc Production Vintage class (P/PV - 250)  and possibly a few other 250cc Vintage classes.   Hoping to up our standing records in the 250 Vintage categories.  It has been a long winter of engine mods and dyno tuning, I hope it all pays off...

Slow going on the engine install,,, I just came in from the shop..7 straight hours with no break... nothing went right, nothing bolted back in on the new motor... Seems like GM Small Blocks are not all the same,,, My motor and mid mounts bolted right up to the motor but when we dropped the in the motor was not in the same location, it was lower and at a slight angle.. I called places and was told the 3 motor mount bolt pads on each side can vary ir to 1/4 "  as that factory allows that much tolerance (rubber mounts are forgiving) but solid mounts are not.

Headers would not fit, just a bunch of problems,,,

But now the motor and headers and all is in and correct now...

Tomorrow I need to install the radiator and fan, check all oils and fluids, change rear gear, drain fuel cell, change fuel filter, gas up and test run engine.. then load the truck and trailer, then load the car.  hmm sounds simple ??

If all goes well and I don't pass out from exhaustion, I hope to be at Maxton by Noon on Friday.

We load up and roll out tonight from Nashville with the no longer wheelless black Sonoma. New wheels thanks to Wheelsmith and some repairs and other little upgrades. We finished last night around 12 and we still have to make a push bar before we roll today. See you all there!
