The motor touched down on the K-member in the Blue Beast on Sunday. I'm just a little late for this year.

I'm really sorry that Texas was mostly MIA this year. Although at the afterparty, 1 Skizzy = all the rest of us Texans combined.

In the new motor we actually went smaller with the cam and the compression is just a hair more. Really just a hair, not sandbagging on that. I think it went from 11.92:1 to 12.06:1 It's been such a disaster I can't believe I went ahead and rebuilt the damn thing. Anyway, we'll see what the modest changes bring... hopefully soon. Drivetrain is in the car. I have to dive back in tomorrow night after work and start routing the wiring harness, install fuel rails and injectors, alternator, starter, run the plug wires, vacuum lines, bunch of small stuff. My buddy Robby Rabun is helping me out big time. Should have it running by the weekend. Then need to get Tony and Moe on it to check the tune and verify AFR since we did change the motor a little. Put the Yank SS4000 in it last night, leaving the big bastard triple disc Precision on the shelf for the moment.

Fired it up late last night. I'm really tired, but at least the bitch is back together and running.
