V-gate woe is....

Yeah, they work the same but they are much smaller in size so they fit better in the car.

If my junk ever runs again, I have one set up to go in. I’m this >< close to just selling it all. The fun has stopped way back. The wife and I talked about it last night.

Since the pistons are out, I can get the compression down to 10.5:1, take a bunch of cam out of it, put it back together and fire sale the thing.

When the fun stops, it’s time for the junk to go, and it’s about that time.
Yeah the shifter seems a little bit more work than fun these days and it sure ain't fun not being able to get your foot on the brake pedal! I mean it does add an element of excitement but not the kind of looking for! LOL..
that's a lot of the reason I've been doing some of the crazy stuff I've been doing on my car lately - nitrous - AC...so forth..
