  1. Distributor at the back of the block = 392. If it's on an angle in front of the RH valve cover then its a 426 or larger.
  2. I would have to concur with Mr. Biggs. If you dont feel comfortable with the mixing ratios, you can get pre-mixed paint from Slixx or Black Gold. As for the tape I like 3m green and Tamiya.
  3. Roger that Don! Cant wait to hoist a few with you.
  4. Yea, I've tried to tell them my name is Ariel Hernandez but I just cant seem to pull off the whole Latino thing. Now I just tell them my name is John Stark. ...oh yea, and I keep a bail bondsman's phone # in my wallet too.
  5. As one of the aforementioned Philly Guyz (unofficial trouble makers of NNL East) it is our obligation to make the scene. Even though we are only an hour and a half to 2 hrs away, most of us will be up there on Friday. CHEESEBURGERS!!!
  6. Spyder, I have used the ball end of a dry transfer burnishing tool. Through some trial & error, I got it to work pretty good. I would recomend heating the aluminum first. It will make the tube easier to form and less likely to split.
  7. Are you sure? I could have sworn the 36's had a curve to it so it would clear the waggle brace.
  8. That is a wuzzle brush. Its used to clean the Knuter valve mounted on the framistamic torque tube of a 37 Huppmobile!
  9. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! LMAO!!!
  10. Cruz, I knew there was a reason I liked you. Been a Steelers fan since I was a kid. Not a bad sports year. Phillies win the World Series, and now the Steelers. Go Flyers!
  11. Zack, I had the opertunity to try the new Badger "Rage" and "Velocity" airbrushes a week ago, and both were epuiped with a mini Q/disconect. I did not notice any difference in performance at all. The only thing that did give me some difficulty was connecting and disconecting the hose while using the bottom feed Velocity with a large paint bottle. Attaching the hose is easier w/o the paint bottle. I had no problem with with the top feed Rage. I would recomend using a Q/disco if you change brushes often
  12. Man; you got a better chance of seeing God than getting one of my cheeseburgers!
  13. There goes the neighborhood!
  14. I gotta say, I loved the race! It like a 24 hour sprint race. When the series first started I wasnt crazy about the styling either, but the compition is much better than in ALMS and has won me over. Nick, if you get the chance, go see the series when they come to Thunderbolt Raceway here in NJ.
  15. Brian, I love the concept, and the execution is fantastic. I especialy like the smoke & flames. I do have one question about the design concept though. Why did you choose to place the "panel lines" where you did instead of, maybe, working with the factory panels and character lines? Once again, let me congratulate you on a fantastic job!
  16. I'll always be a Steelers fan. Jack Lambert was the man! However, living across the river from Philadelphia, I would love to see the Eagles in the Super Bowl
  17. MERRY CHRISTMAS To you all!! May all you styrene junkies get a room full of goodies!!
  18. Lyle, The rest of the Philly Boyz & I are on our way to your house now. We figured why wait!!
  19. Lyle, The rest of the Philly Boyz & I are on our way to your house now. We figured why wait!!
  20. That's it Jasons here, everyone out of the pool! Seriously man, welcome to the party! 8) Mike: Your really starting to scare me now! SEEK HELP!! :shock:
  21. Yo, another of The Philly Boyz checkin in. We'll be out in force. Irv, I got dollar bills this time . Sorry I missed the show last year. :shock: Lyle, don't forget that all important travel tip to prevent falling asleep at the wheel. :twisted:
