Talking Vintage Road course

sounds good, I'm in. Maybe Jay and Brian can paint some stripes around the parking lot and mark the apex on the corners for us?

Roz and all,
What camshafts are you all running in your PE motors (steel core or cast core; roller or flat tappet)?
I have seen a couple of Perf. Engineering motors lately that were running the wrong dizzy gear material type with their particular camshaft and they prematurely wiped out the gears on both the camshaft and the distributor...

Ask about the camshaft/dizzy gear type is all I suggest...
Have fun!

Picture looks like the ride hight could be a bit lower, there is a lot of air between the top of the tire and the fender flair.

Looks a bit nippy there for peddling it home, better get that motor bay filled up and the seat heaters put in then scoot home before the drifts pile up....really looks good.

Nice Roz!
Congratulations...
The engine will breath much better with a bit taller filter on it, but I am sure you'll be fine until spring with that one...
I like your oil cooler guard too.. I gotta build me one of them to protect the new Setrab AN12 setup that I put on last fall...
Don't you wish it were spring already?
Pat
