I think a lot of us wish I had a "junker" like yours.

Uhhhh, Hank....Kathy wants to talk to you.


Thanks Ms Grumpy ! I should have it at Frankenmuth.

Hank..did you get the stud in head to work?

Uh oh!

I ran a tap in until it bottomed out then ran a 3" bolt in, looks like it might work. I'll use a torque wrench and see if I can get 30-35 foot lbs on it. There was also a broken stud at the front of the manifold. I welded a nut on it to back it out. Have to clean up the head surface and still waiting on the replacement manifold to arrive. Thanks for the advice, appreciate it.

If you bring that thing to Frankenmuth, please don't park next to me again. People won't even notice that I brought a car. :D Thanks again Tony, can't wait to see your car.

That car is you...that photo with your arm hangin out the window...reminds me of those Rat Fink cartoons. Bitchin car...great job.

Thanks Ray...By the way, your phone is broken. I left you a message a few days ago and you didn't return my call. The ONLY reason you didn't call is it must be broken.

Yep, it was broke...got it fixed now.

I don't think it's the phone, sometimes I think Ray is broken. Waving Of course I'm not 100% all the time either.

Im glad his name is Ray and not Roy.

Roy,,,er Ray, called today. Hank, he might come up tomorrow. Come on up with him if you can.

Please dont call him Roy ,we had a Governer named that who sucked.
