  1. Jimi Hendrix ask to join Cream on stage during their rehearsal........they knew nothing about Hendrix at the time. They were the elite band .....they didn't know what to think. Hendrix plugged into Bruce's bass rig and played. What isn't said in this video is how much Jimi and Clapton grew to respect each other. 48D I am, a Hendrix fan.
  2. Glad to know you're in the garage Paul and not in the hospital......keep at it brother! 48D
  3. That's what we run in the Stockcar division, 4412 Holley.....of course they are 2bbl's on steroids...lol 48D
  4. The adjustable port valve is in a tough spot. I realize you could dial it in lil by lil....but having it up top would make it easier to make those adjustments. In circle track racing, the port valve is next to my shifter for adjustments on the fly. The rear brakes need to come in after the front brakes. It may not seem off until you hit it hard and lock up the back before the fronts have a chance to do their job. The plumbing is first rate, but I would like better access to the knob. imo 48D
  5. If the block is mild (slugs not zero at the deck and or stock valves) not sure a 650 dbl pumper is the best bet. If it's a spread bore vac/secondary it might give more back. Timing is dependent on vacuum....get that set first then find your advance. What's the bottom end like? What is your conv/stall spec? What is your rear axle gear ratio? What is your final drive ratio? What is the vehicle weight? Just trying to get a feel for the drivetrain. 48D
  6. Yah.....I think limited publication has kept the price high.....I plan on getting a hard copy for a bit of coin. 48D
  7. BBQ 2020 is in the past, the future is now........I'M READY FOR BBQ #14 2021 BROTHER!!! Lets hope we get through the year with our health intact, and our jobs sound! Here's to friends!!!! Tim aka 48Dodger
  8. Funny thing about dirt. It can be hell of a lot of work to level and work it out smooth....in the end, its still dirt. That foundation trench is purty. When I dug mine 15teen years ago (40x60), I didn't have very cooperative dirt. It broke uneven on the edges and had a woobly trench base, probably cost me a little more cement for the foundation pour. lol. Its a floating slab. Hope things pick-up soon for everyone that has a project/life on hold for the Covid. 48D
  9. Estrada MotorSports 1948-53 Dodge Trucks: Cab removal Clock in at 6:50 and you'll see the cover under the seat deal. 48D
  10. lol....like the gear box stand on the roller! Whole project is looking great. Got a name for it? My is called "The Brick". 48D
  11. I just pick the truck up and hold it upside down and smack the bell housing with the back of my hand. Falls right out. 48D
  12. "David Rockwell has written a book on the Ramchargers which will be published by the SAE in late 2009 or early 2010." Great article. Wonder if this book got done? Looking for it now. 48D
  13. Stay with an epoxy based primer and epoxy based color . Epoxy is resin based and very resistant to "use". It's high impact and difficult to sand smooth. The steering wheel doesn't need butt smooth, it needs durability against hand contact and torque. 48D * Guess my comment was a lil late to the show...hope it helps someone.
  14. I'm so sorry Roland.....I was busy working on fences and didn't even bother to open the gates! I was convinced that no one would brave the weather. I'll make it up to you next year my friend. 48D
