Did that fever subside?And now I got another job offer
Not fully. Holding around 100
For sure. I figured that would happen. Right now, the one from last night is leading, it’s 6k more a year and local, but the one this am is 90 minutes away but more what I want to do long term.
And now I got another job offer
A plague of plenty
100 while dosing Tylenol?

Your EV should be good for that 90 minute commute, unless of course it snows.
Never snows round the farm

I'm considering a new hot rod of a different alphabetical genre. The one I'm looking at has a B Block in it and it still has the OE 2 bbl on it. I was raised by a man that raced at El Mirage Dry Lake with a flathead Ford with 6 Strombergs on it and 2 bbl hot rods are just not in my genetic makeup . I started looking for alternative manifolds yesterday and found that the well known performance part suppliers don't seem to care for the B Blocks and the selection of manifolds is severely limited. Checking the manufacturers catalogs revealed the same until I got to Offenhauser and they have a more varied selection. Now to find a set of skinny head gaskets to bump the CR a little bit.

B block Mopar? Which engine? 350,361,383 or 400?I'm considering a new hot rod of a different alphabetical genre. The one I'm looking at has a B Block in it and it still has the OE 2 bbl on it.

383 and the factory rating isn't bad on the HP count, but there is plenty room for improvement. I've had good experiences with Crower Cams in the past and they have a nice selection of grinds.
The old Edelbrock DP4B intakes work good. They still make the steel shim head gaskets. MOPAR Edelbrock DP4B 383 Intake Manifold Four BBL Aluminum Big Block 400 70 71 | eBay
Morning, little warmer today 25 now high of 45. Dogs don't care as long as we go for a walk. Coffee is on at the farm.
This is at the new place you have snow on the ground? We had 'sneet' before it turned to rain yesterday, but didn't amount to anything.
Here's to the Buffalo / Watertown lake-effect folks this week.
Buffalo, where they measure snowfall by the yard!

Yep up on the “other” hill in Arkansas! In Fargo this would not even qualify as a dusting!
Meeting at 3pm local to do just that
Holley street dominator for the B is by far the best 4 barrel intake for a B.I'm considering a new hot rod of a different alphabetical genre.

Well, the Firebird is already kicking my ***. Sort of. Choke light issue, turns out alternator is bad. New one on the way…
I'm sure you know.. just that the Tylenol will suppress the temperature...
Well notice served. It was rather anticlimactic in nature.
