haha, if y'all give me money I would spend it on food instead
Ordered viton valve seals (for more valve lift clearance), a paper timing cover gasket, some arp moly lube, and a ZZP sticker for my tool box. Cam, flywheel bolts, and oil pump cover bolts remain. Tried to order the cam today, but ARH never answered the phone or my e-mail, so that's on standby. Tomorrow I call Scoggin ****ey to see about returning the main bearings they sent me (wrong bearings on their part), and will try abbott after that. If Scoggin takes the bearings back, then I can afford to have the valve guides cut and get a cam with a bit more lift.

I'm a weird fisherman, I go down south to Strawberry lake, it's a remote lake that you have to hike to from a dry campsite, and sit in my rubber raft in the middle of the lake with some bait hanging from a bobber. Then I take a nap for a few hours, wake up, bring in my rainbow trout, row to shore, hike back and have fish for dinner cooked over a camp fire (gut it, and stuff cheese, salt/pepper, and onion in it, wrap it in foil, and cook. Goes good with baked potato cooked in a similar way, wrapped in foil). That's what I call fishing and relaxation, best vacation you can have. It's a long up-hill hike to the lake though, and hope to goodness that your boat doesn't pop, that water is insanely cold up there.
Heh, I always say that the fish interrupt my nap on the lake

You haulted a perfectly good Camaro project so you could work on a Mustang! Where are the towns people? Bring on the torchs! We will be over to discuss this as soon as possible.
Sorry, I understand we all do what we have to but I had to bust your kohunas for that

lol, that's understandable. Our stang ran a best of 10.49 though (351 cleveland), the pony aint slow, and we just ordered a forged 408 stroker kit for it. When an engine does this, it's worth messing with :P

Oh yeah, just thought I'd add this. My 315's throw all kinds of crap on my fenders, so I'm making some splash guards. Here's my poster-board mock-up, pardon the dirty ride and skinny drag wheels on the front. I've been showing this pic around, and people seem to want to buy them. If all goes well, maybe I'll become a sponsor and sell these, we'll see.
