Maybe I should loan Bill one of my old dented up Titanium Plates I slipped into my pants at work. (;>)

Every so often I would hear a "Whang" when someone tried to put it to me on a project.

Not even Lil Jack can get thru that stuff so Bill should be safe from Impregnation.

If its warmed up to body temp its viable that jack still may get some form of enjoyment from it. He likes a challenge. But yes it would give added protection....

I appologize Dave,It was thought that bills work had never been on a car before and i just said Im happy with the gains I made after his work(finally),then lil jack brought up the baddest S/ST car on the planet IMO(your car)and then all of a sudden compression ratio apparently became a big issue.? I didn't see the harm in the discussion. Yea you may be the check writer but racetracks probly get tired of writing you checks

Im just glad you picked up like you did with your current combo. Heck that thing flies!I hope you make a run a the D2 championship in '13.Well at least give Jimmy some fits with your Pontiac power

What mph is Jimmy running now? Is he still in street?


Now once again I appologize Dave....... Hey are you Goin to Belle Rose?
