Amazing scenery in that area
I'm sure there's plenty of Nods kicking around there....

That’s what we all have told him but he wants his own kit. He will be fine, he is just griping to gripe!

Just now stopping for some lunchA . I had forgotten what a slave driver Jodi is when she is home. I have pulled so many weeds over the last two days my hammie is gonna look like Craig’s I don’t stop. Holy crap.
Carb is off....
The throttle plates look pretty gummed up. Time for a good cleaning....
Had the heater installed a couple hours ago. Still fighting with the air in the system, 
You got stuff...
I buy everything I can think of and still don't have what I need.I'm a preparedness idiot.
I buy everything possible.... then return what I don't use
House is cooling down again... T-stat only goes to 75, so I had to run the air down lower so I could run the heater and make sure it worked. Didn't at first. So cooled it down again while I ran the garden hose in the basement to pump through the heater loop. Got the air out along with a bit of crud. Cycled the heat again and All seams good now. 
as do iI buy everything I can think of and still don't have what I need.

See that right there is where we differ, I buy a bunch of stuff I don’t need then never return it thinking I will use it some day! And my number one move is to put “it” somewhere special so that I don’t lose it. Then when I tear the shop apart trying to find it, to no avail. I then go buy another one. And presto change I find it! It is my best magic trick ever!I'm a preparedness idiot.

Been there
Do you have a build thread somewhere, I must have missed it the details of this valiant. I see a slant so my attention just zoomed in.
So the search engine on this site is weak. Anyone know how to squeeze more power out of a 273.
I have a recently acquired 69 273 2bbl. In a 69 valiant.
I'm assuming it's like a 318.... cam, carb, and headers

Just like any engine, power starts and ends with the heads. The rest just goes from there
So I’m a genius! Or at least I think so.
So I’ve been bitten by this live edge, DIY home saw mill **** lately. I’ve got a bunch of logs to turn into lumber this fall but the stumbling block has been how to dry it. Kilns want 3.50-6 bucks per linear foot to dry it. At 190 degrees for 6 days. Kind of defeats the purpose of homesaw milling.
Or it dawned on me we have two, fully functional grain bins with dryers that heat up to 210 degrees. 600 bucks in propane and I could use them as a kiln…
Just have to wait until we sell everything out of them in November
