What happened to Hoppy's shed demo party? 
Lol I’m being conservative .Good Morning all...............440 only 500 Hp? What did you do Wrong??^^^^
It never happened. I had scheduled another week there to help, but he was over whelmed...What happened to Hoppy's shed demo party?
REALLY windy and lots of rain on way home. Crazy weather...Got to California, Hot and dry....
Buddy's 440 dyno'd at 500/500 and it's fairly mild. Mildly ported iron heads.Good Morning all...............440 only 500 Hp? What did you do Wrong??^^^^
Nice. Desktop dyno puts me in the 550-600 hp range with my heads. So we shall see. My goal was only 500, so if it’s more than that I’m thrilled
Ditch the roll cage, When will you find the time to prep for a race, travel to the race and actually race??

I figured that was going to be too much. Even before the truck broke down. Plus, July is just too hot. Sounds like a Sept- Oct project.
Crazy thing. On trip home, on one of my walk around's, getting fuel, I noticed a BIG *** dent on the trailer's right side fender. Not in place that I could have hit anything, or where any one could have backed in to it. I had to happen at the show. Strange I did not notice it. Fender is think *** metal...
I figure eventually I’ll upgrade to a roller cam and lifters but not in the short term. But still, 500 hp in a 3100 lb car should be a fun ride
Hmm odd
Yep Listen to how mild this one is.
yep mild...
I am looking forward to Getting my 408 installed, running in my 66. That should be a torque monster....
Thanks to @Old man ray for the cool shirt.
I picked up the Transmission for it at Hoppys. Have most everything now to finish. Just have to do it!
Still waiting on rear window trim clips from year one!!! Cannot put rear glass in without those first. ALWAYS something!! Then getting on the Satellite. LOTS to do there....
That is a big dent. Will be a ***** to pound out.....

There is just something quite peaceful about lining up by yourself. Seems like the whole world just kind of moves along at your pace. And you know you have the win, and no need to worry about somebody crossing into your lane, plus you can dial in and experiment with your own junk during the “free” pass.

So, that would have been facing out? Too high for a car and had to stick out. Back corner of a pickup or box truck?...
