Speaking of back

Now that is a funny post, made me smile on that one opellic.

Someone told me at Norwalk one time that the KRE guys needed turn-signals on their elbows so George would not get a
neck injury when KRE made a turn to the left or right. Not quite sure of what they were implying but have a rough idea.
Wish I could remember the guys name. A funny comment at the time and everyone in the group was cracking up.

You do have a habit of making stuff up…..a bad habit.
Made no sense….you should reread it.
And when was the last time you were at Norwalk and why is that…..asking for a friend?

You have friends? Personally I think you have cowards who hang with you who would tamper with my wife's vehicle by sticking carpet cutter blades into the rear tires.

Charlie66 was there when the Firestone dealer removed the carpet blades.
Left and right rear tires. Not an accident that both tires were cut in the same day.

So who wants to go to a race where scum bags like your pals that did that to my wife's car hang out.

Any PY Forum Guy who agrees with that BS is the lowest of the low-life people in my opinion.
I don't hang with scum bags like that. Why would you be asking that question if you were not involved with that BS.

You shouldn’t piss people off…..maybe it was one of you friends! You have been known to threaten people on this board.

I have my own head gasket set up also I pretty sure no one are using ARP2000 head studs in a Pontiac like me. I also changed my main stud nut set up, damn I’ve changed so much on my engine combo!

So back on track!
opeliac, so what needed to be done with your rings to install them?

Who did you buy the rings from, opeliac, Marty years ago or Bob and Frank?

If you have directions, from Marty or Bob and Frank, you are good to go, otherwise I can ask Marty to send me the Machining Instructions and will post them here for you.

I bought them from Bob and Frank...I had planned on having Butler do the machine work, but when I called today, the guy on the phone said they've never done any...So, I called Tony earlier, and I think i'm gonna run it up to BES next week...

Since you've ran them, what is your opinion? What engine are they on?

I haven't run them yet. Motor is being put together to run this year. Bill is assembling motor and doing machine work to it. The engine is an IA-II alum block that was made into a 4 cyl. with billet crank, billet Ram Air 5 Wilcox head and billet blower manifold. One of a kind
