My valve covers are black though, does that count?

Okay, my question is where do you guys find the time for building these beautiful creations? I have 3 kids and between soccer, baseball, dance and feedings for the 3 month old, I barely have time to read my Excellence magazine. Geez if it weren't for work, I would never get any sleep. ;)

Geees Bill... Carbon fiber chain housings, but a spark plug instead of the cam pin tool? :D. What do those chain housings cost if i may ask?

No, but theya are a light weight composite, ~$1k/side last I looked.

Put those engines back where you found them!

"but a spark plug instead of the cam pin tool?"

I've always been enamored by this particular peice of cleverness. It saves over 50 cents, and I am a plug user. Not to mention that you can use a piece of old spark plug wire to hold something or other on a Saab 99 instead of the multi-buck factory tool. Luckily I no longer have to remeber what it was....

Nice comb. chamber, Bill.

Hard to see but here it is. This is when I first finished the EFI install. The motor had 330 RWHP and 318 ft lbs with CIS. Now I have no idea.

You know, if I had a nickel for everybody that said nice things about my carbs, I'd make a nice dent in the cost of paying for them.
