Looks like you're 13 hours ahead of us here on the West Coast. Looks like a call at 10pm your time would be 9am at APE(hours: 9-5). Jerry's posted the phone number above. I'll be talking with them around noon, so if you'd like me to ask any questions on your behalf as to how best to get them your cc#, I'd be happy to do so.

There is a huge vintage road race up here at the track this weekend and there is also a swap meet. I should have looked for some sohc blocks.

There are guys racing Honda 350 400 and 750 fours in this deal.

Ricky Racer was here at the shop as they were showing some of their products up there. You cafe guys, he has some real nice stuff.

Hi Jay! Thanks for the recommendation. Nippon and I both really enjoyed meeting you and Jeff. Thanks again for the tour of the shop. It was wonderful to see so many incredible Big Boy's Toys; I'd kill for just one of your huge CNC mills!   :o  RR

That wraps up the minimum for the first batch. Anyone else? You'd better get your order in or you'll have to wait for the next........  Hopefully Jay will order a few more for his inventory.

OK crew, what's our HP goal for our engines? 110 to 115??

I just spoke to Pat and he says there are 3 concrete orders though I believe he is waiting for a DP from Mick which would make 4. Very close gentlemen. Be a player and step up to the plate you guys. ;) ;D

Come on guys. Get in on the first batch. If you'll remember the rods, the first batch was $100 cheaper. Didn't expect that so you never know about the pistons.

Mike,

UPS will be visiting Monday. (begin salivation)

Maybe this should have stayed sticky for a while longer as only 4 sets have been made so far and this post would get more exposure left where it was. Is there a problem with leaving it sticky.?

Any picts of the pistons, yet?
When the majority of the United States population get to be 70 years old, they will finally realize what is really important. And by then it'll be too late.
