Hey Ray, you bringing that blown motor in sumthin' ??? 
I guess your not gonna put in the Pickle,  plans for something else ?
Inquiring minds.  I've seen some big horsepower in semi vees, but not sure of how safe & sane they were.  ::)
You can always put bigger pullies on it.  I know we did, could'nt afford the good gas at this juncture.  :(
Looking forward to seeing you guys.

No, Blower motor's still not complete. In fact the heads for it are being delivered there, unless Pat has an epiphany on the way and decides to dump his whacker and buld a BBF Jet boat!  ;D . And yes, talked myself out of putting it in Pickle. At least for now. Someone doesn't buy it before the October trip, Probably just gonna do it anyway and see if I can sink it or not. We've found a few SST tunnels around, but until I get some cash for this one, no go.  :banghead:

Not sure what we're bringing. We finished up the pump/header/carb/intake upgrades on the Charger (And MAN does it sound pissed off!) so I'm leaning towards that one. I guess friday afternoon we'll decide what we're hooking up to, either the Charger or Pickle.

See you guys Friday Nite!  :thumbup:

I've been trying to figure out a way to snatch that blower on the way out and bolt it to the front of the merc.....still in the planning stages.

We should arrive 2:00-3:00 tomorrow afternoon depending on the co-pilots medications. 

If she's well medicated it'll be around 2:00, is she isn't it'll be closer to 3:00  ;)

Me and the wife had an awsome time this weekend. it was our first but, I'm sorry we had to leave so quick without letting any of you guys know saturday, something came up with my parents and we had to go get the kids. It was nice to meet all you guys, including Brad the leader. Now I can put a face too who I'm talking too on the boards. You too Pat, and Gord. Thanks for introducing me to the guys. Can't wait for the next gathering. Isn't that at the AVI in oct.

Can't wait to see some pics and video

I wont be home for about an hour or so, pics should be in a new thread, I've got some vids too. Quite a few guys still out there too so I can imagine it will be a couple days to see it all. Had one of the funnest weekends in a long time. Nice meeting all the new people. Gord needs to move on down here

Sounds like Gord should buy the Big River Inn and make it a regular stop on the SCJB tour.  ;)  :beer:
