Thank you My427...

Indeed I polished everything which could create a hot spot. close your eyes and imagine... No never mind. Just make it as smoothe and as slippery as... No never mind. Just make it as smooth as you can .

The nice thing about a 12:1 street motor is you get the kind of looks (respect, fear, whatever) that a door slammer got in the 60's I highly reccomend if you can put up with the downsides and slow speed heat issues, real though to keep it from detonating (not just slapping in an MSD) that you do it.

I hated it at first. Driving in traffic scares me. Heat scares me. But open road, back road and long streches of country road hurl you back 40 years and you know why these cars were built. I still get goose bumps.
