Hooters tonight??? Hey guys I know the weather most likely wont be the best tonight but I won't be able to make the meet tomorrow at 4 corners. I will be in Westmont for band practice tonight. If anyone wants to meet up at the Downers Grove Hooters about 9:15-9:30 for a couple of beers let me know and I will stop up there....I drove the Z today because I am still trying to see how the car is reacting to the tuning that Marcin did.
I will be leaving work at 6pm and will not be checking the board after that so if anyone decides to go and no one else posted call me on my cell
708-372-8262 and I will meet you up there...otherwise I will go home.

I am giving the head to my buddy. He owns a cylinder head shop and he is going to check it out and make any necessary repairs. Hopefully I can get it to him by tomorrow or Friday. About a 1/16 of an inch in the center.

correct, i lost a couple keepers so I took them off of a 67 SBC...I lapped the valves and there was no issue...it lasted for about a week and a half before they melted to the retainer.
I went and bout new keepers so this will not happen again.
