I think we met some drunks that had that box already last year bill. Thought one of us threw a plastic bottle at them and it turned to glass in mid air  Bill you will love the knife edged bars, and louis gunna love the the engine. Tell sis we said hi, lol.

Is that a stock oil pan or one that's been cut down to give you more clearance? Chad

Looks good 2-1/2" ain't to bad to give up.guess the 35's will get it back up there.well after today I've got one more motor to go through and then I guess I'm going to jump on the w/c wagon.so I'd better start paying attention. Chad

It's just not meant for me to have a stroker vw.rode today and hit a good pipeline and something broke in the bottom end.sounded like rod broke,so I'd say I trashed yet another everything.I've got a brand new one getting finished up now that was for my old buggy I was bringing out of retirement but I guess I'll put it on the single seater.every time I think I'm doing good I get screwed.had oil coming out the block under the shroud so I'd say a rod let go.I love throwing couple thousand dollars out the window.I know I'm going to hear about the ragging on how expensive the a/c are but I love the way they sound and run but my line is starting to get drawn in the sand.might just build a w/c chain drive and be done with it.I'm seriously puked.Chad

I agree about way ac sounds and runs but since i ran my suby last year be hard pressed to get me ro build a stroker motor to much cheap h.p and torque to justify it sorry for stealing thread bill But i will still build non stroker ac |
