    Leanna Strikes Again!

    This Gal and her operation is first class. Look at what she did with a real beat-to-death, torched....twisted and massaged Hurst shifter. I moved this one around with a torch so it fit me good with the pistol grip. Instead of re-chroming, I had our very own Leanna work her magic. Before After...

    STUPID Question....

    Why does JEGS advertise a shifter for every COLOR Camaro, but for Mopar they advertise only B bodies and full-sized Chrysler's? Isn't the actual guts the same, with the shifters being different ?!?!? BTW: The rods are an additional $125!!!! :protest:

    Mancini's Rules!

    The big brown truck just dropped off my replacement 614 fan shroud. As was discussed here a few weeks ago, Hoffman's, the shroud manufacturer, is making good on all those cracked reproduction "614" shrouds the vendors are selling.

    STUPID Question

    I assembled my engine over a year ago and I don't remember: do the Edelbrock heads end exhaust studs enter the water jacket like the factory heads? I don't think so, but I plan on firing up this thing today and was double checking so I don't have leaks all over that fresh build. I seem to...

    Tom's Duster: BOOM!

    Yup... it's dead already. Owned it 6 days. He didn't even register it in his name, still has the previous owners plates on it.... and the rear let go. We jacked it up this morning and found the pinion nut backed off, ruining the bearing and pinion. Needless to say, Tom has a phone call to make...
