It'd be nice to meet you....it's always great to have options when you're wanting work done.

Bene and Paul, I have a set of MT ET Streets that need to be finished off. Looks like I won't be able to use them this year until I get my 9", so might as well let someone else use them. For those who know George over in Memphis, he gave them to me and I'd like to mimick his kindness and offer them to you two. They have enough tread that you could both get a couple runs at least and they hook like a ****!!

I'm getting excited......we've been trying to get something like this together for the past two years.....looks like we might finally get it!!

Right on! I'm not turning down a free use of MT ET streets. I heard that the schedule on Sunday is 10-5 pm.

anyone that wants to be here on the 5th, and possibly come by our grand opening.....let me know if you want to get on the dyno for our 50.00 special.

we will be giving out of towners preferential treatment to make sure they get on the dyno.

our local customers will be able to come by the shop anytime later on and still get the special price.

hope to see some of you guys there. right now they are calling for perfect weather both saturday and sunday.

It's howling..the pinion seal had to be replaced so I let Christian Bros. Auto do it... My guess is that they crushed the crush sleeve and now there is play in the pinion gear and the bearing is eating itself...just a guess though.

I think I'm going to buy a solid spacer so I don't have to worry about a damn crush sleeve anymore.

If you need them welded in...that's not a problem. Give me a call so I can get you taken care of.

Thanks,
