I had originally typed that I would be showing up with something blue, but deleted that.

I'm gonna try to get the Chevelle race-ready. To run the bike, I'd probably have to bring it in the truck. It's cold!

Wow, it's been a while since I updated this thread. As the 2008 season is coming to an end, so will this topic. I'll start a new one for 2009. I made my final trip to the dragstrip on June 18th. Actually, at the time, Linda had said she'd like to go out to the dragstrip, and I never need much proddi...

I had a little free time today, so I finally tackled the 'mufflerectomy' on my SV. Basically, just cutting and removing part of the baffle inside the stock exhaust. I bought a complete stock exhaust system from a guy in Parma a few weeks ago so that I could keep my stock system intact just in case I...

Does anyone remember those setups that used a conventional clutch disc in place of the torque converter on an automatic? I remember seeing a guy a Thompson years ago with a setup like that. My guess is that was sorta like a wannabe transbrake -- get the revs up, but leave the chassis unloaded and th...

I'm gonna say to not waste your money on roller rockers, unless you're changing the rocker ratio. When I first changed from stamped to roller (without changing ratio), I could never find a difference in my ET.
