Wow! That's progress! Now, if he'd just stop referring to me as "that a..hole from New York". Maybe now that I'm not constantly calling him for parts and help!
Tom- thanks for keeping in touch with Fritz and Steve. Maybe I need a new goal in life- trying to make it into VanDyne's will!
To whoever commented about rare Pontiac stuff collecting dust- I suspect that many of us are guilty of doing that. It comes with our mindset- just can't pass up chances to grab a lot more stuff than we can work on. And it's hard (at least for me) to do justice to more than a couple efforts at a time. I was so intent on competing with my hemi, that I passed up a chance to witness a restored Thunderbolt with running M/T hemi Ford, just 15 miles from me! And yes, my hemi is temporarily dusty, but it truly earned a rest. For now, I'm preoccupied with curiosity about how my variable-cam-phasing Poncho will run.
Someone said that my HPP article "only scratched the surface". Again, as I said in the article, I've got no secrets- I'll answer any question that I can. But I'm not about to write a book.
