You guys do know I live in Alabama right? Neither of the two machine shops I'm using does that. I'm leaving hers and mine stock. Sorry.

Honestly Jay, if you plan on 4-500 HP, and your not in a big hurry, I would send them to someone you know that can get it done for you. It may cost you a couple weeks, but it won't cost that much money. Do they balance at either of those shops you have?

Ken, hopefully the stock rods can handle more than 500rwhp and I've read that they can handle 800rwhp. I don't have two weeks either since I"ve got to pull my motor, redo the wiring, install my new motor and new head, rewire, get it running, tune it, break in a new clutch, install rear skirts, blend in, paint, paint new front bumper, all before march. I've also got to get Vondas car running during all this when I dont' have anything else to do. Sleep is way overrated, and I plan on not getting any for the next month and a half.

Gone to look for Vixen pictures.

Here's a short video at the dyno. It has a cameo by Vonda.

Here's one of her and my oldest daughter Ashley, and what is that I see in the background?

No problems here, it's his car. Besides, I think he's a little worried about that 7M being rebuilt....;)

This just in. The machine shop called and said they accidentally dropped her crank and broke it. They said they can probably jbweld it back together, but it's goint to be a month or two before they get a chance to work on it. Sorry.

No I don't have to pull my motor. It's running better than most 7m's that I know of, but I want to add some bottom end power for those that are calling me out on the trip to Texas..............:evil2:

Duane, Good humor is wasted on my wife. When they were giving out humor, she thought they said tumor, and she told them she didn't want any...........:biglaugh:
