He bought the new ladder bars and ends for his car and has not touched them. He is busy with life in general I guess.

That's good to hear.... His stuff was a huge inspiration to my build some 10-12 years ago.

He helped me a lot over on Pontiac zone 10yr ago. I actually sent him a PM over there looking to buy a cam from him back in Nov but it doesnt look like hes been on there either. I remember him favoring solids and I'd still grab one from him if hes still doing it?

Too bad there wasn't more of a demand for his headers. Be a nice repayment for the contributions to the boosted Pontiac community.

Turbo headers are whats keeping our Pontiac turbo build low. He's ahead of our time for sure! If he made it now, it would sell out quick for what he was asking for a set.

And just think, his cast crank, stock block 2 bolt main 900+ h.p. has never been out of the car even for a bearing check, and still going!!.
He wanted me to go meet him at Lebanon Valley race track this season, It is a hike for me though.

Yes, I broke the automatic 3rd time out just getting it back together, tonight I will finish it. Then if it stays together, I will street tune, I was hoping to go to a June 18th rental, but my trailer is screwed up too. I would like to get there in cool weather not an 80-90 degree day. I just can't wait to drive it again.

Did you get any passes in before you hurt it.

No, I was racing a gsxr , car was black tracking, so I was shifting second while spinning a bit, I flipped the 34 element sprag, I just upgraded to the 36 element. Keeping my fingers crossed. I am so tired of transmissions at this point. Hope this does it. I should have built a lighter car!!
