taking it to a shop is too easy and you learn nothing,

first, send heads to charlie evens to be gone through
second, figure out a block, ford racing block is around 2 grand then machine work, or find another used one witch i would do.
third, buy a crank, lets face it the cast crank is going to let you down eventually.
fourth, pistons and rods, send all rods to machine shop to be checked then buy the rods and pistons you need, then balance the rotating assy again.

when all parts are gathered lock your self in the garage alone measure, check, measure, check then clean re-measure and check again. make a list measure, check, well you get the idea...... do not rush to get it done, it will get done when its done.....

if you insist on taking it to a shop then take it to paul kane and not some shop that does all brands.

yes, you can adjust how much nicotine intake you get and ween yourself off of cigarettes. the problem is you still have the hand-to-mouth addiction, but the ecigs are harmless as its just flavored vapor.

You don't?

Never thought I'd make a post like this.  Everyone I know who smokes wants to quit, and have tried a few times.  A good buddy of mine recently made the switch to E-cigs from cowboy killers.  He made it 2 weeks without a smoke and is going strong.....I reluctantly joined the game...smoked for 17 years, got an e- cig on Tuesday and have smoked less than 3 since then... mostly to make sure they still tasted like ass. 

This thread is to hopefully help at least one take the first step...,it's an amazing feeling to be able to take a proper deep breath again.

On top of that, between the wife and I, we're saving about $400/month.

So things are starting to look up for the Crazy Eights to be attending the 2013 Idaho Regatta on June 21-23, 2013.

The new block should be done today and I have 3 weeks to hammer this out. Not planning on being too competitive in the CompJet class, but mostly to go and have fun again this year.

I made this thread to track the progress of the motor build and road trip to Burley, ID and back.....and of course race footage, pictures, etc. of the event.

As of now, I am rolling solo and will running the SCJB name strong. I believe GT Jets said he was going to be there as well again this year. Who else is going?? Its by far the best race of the year and most fun one as well.



seriously thinking about going maybe drag my rv trailer down

I heard a rumor there's going to be around 15 compjets!

Pics from last year...
