I have been getting some work time in on the hotrods...so that's good. New exhaust gasket for the 67 Camaro Vert...prepping the Challenger for a big block transplant...finishing new interior on the 67 ElCamino.

Might have a buyer for the Vert...so we can spend some money on the Challenger...we'll see.

What hotrods are you guys working on??

I have had one of my better months this year and I dont know what I'm doing I'm know where near making tons of money but I'm staying busy.
Jimbo I have got a new project but havent started on it yet got rid of the 70 nova and now got a 57 Willys Wagon all torn apart right now.
Bob break in the motor and the cam in the right way next time at least 20 min of 3500 rpm so be sure there is no leaks when you go to fire it up the first time its all about oiling and the break in period that makes cams go flat especially on Big blocks.

My guess is you've got a problem with the lubrication system. Aint no oil gettin to the cam on that end for some reason...now figure out why.

Take care,
Lisa
