I was digging around in the pocket behind the passenger seat of the dually tonight. Lo and behold, there was 2 SOHC shift levers. Now where did those come from i thought for a moment. Ahhh, then the light bulb came on. Bill asked me to set up a few for his ari shifters- one on Purple Rain, the other as a spare. Umm, completely forgot they were in there. Sorry Bill. If i have time, i'll weld and cut some parts for you.

You're a machine Bill....

Made it to Atlanta this afternoon. At first glance I could tell Billy was real tired, he really has been up all night working on purple rain!!

While he's getting some shut eye I'm in the shop setting up the air shifter and shift light I brought from Texas. Lots of work to do in just a few days! Probably going to work through the night again tonight

I'm ready for boost!

Unfortunately, no. My wife is leaving in the am on a 10 day Alaskan Cruise and I gotta be here to take care of the animals.
Will definitely make Valdosta.

Yee-ouch!

Guess the plugs weren't included when playing with the "clay-dough"?

Can you cut the electrodes and set the gaps for a side-firing plugs?

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #123 on:** August 22, 2015, 03:04:21 PM »

Sure,but that won't fix the rod bearing!! Not sure Wjlbur,didn't build top end, just bottom. Get to do both again It's cool, happy for Trey, Bill
