Should be over towards the end of April to go testing with the new-look Hunsaker & Fleming Super Street car, ready for Bug-In in May... Beers are on you! 
Just kiddin', Keith. Name the brand, and I'll make sure that you have a few. |

Thanks, guys! The old exhaust flat wore out, so it was time for a change. As Dave pointed out, the traction bar had to be spaced down to clear the new pipes. Tiger did the work at A-1 yesterday after an "exciting" drive to work in rush-hour traffic. As (my rotten  ) luck would have it, a motorcyclist went down on the freeway and traffic was at a stand-still for a couple of miles  . Glad I got the clutch cable fixed a few weeks back! The car sounds great  though I did pull the traction bar off when I got home... not sure if I like the looks of it an inch closer to the ground  .
what's the the pros of this clamp style flange,in comparison to the bolt stly flange?
Two less fasteners to f#@k with?? It's the new rage, baby!   Sarge, I had to do a simular thing with my sidewinder with the traction bar, This is what i came up with. Its the rubber mounted version from bergs. |

Looks like we need to fill some cutouts, now!
Could get a job-lot price for doing the turn signals at the same time. |

I got Keith's new book in the mail on Saturday, and was I shocked... I wasn't expecting it until at least Wednesday of this week, so I was pleased as punch! Not bad considering I ordered a week earlier from www.amazon.com.uk. On top of that I still saved two bucks from the listed U.S. retail price! I've read about two thirds of it, and I gotta say it's awesome. I really like the historical perspective of the times that's included in the chapters. Really great reading that I'll enjoy again and again. If I get to head to Bug In 34 this year, I'll have to try and remember to bring it to get it signed...awesome work, Keith, kudos! |
