sounds like some good progress is ahead! yeah those triple drilled flanges are a killer deal right now!

twistedtoy92 · « **Reply #181 on:** Apr 23, 2010, 05:31:45 PM »

no doubt! I ordered them right before they went off the special

I love this time of year because it gets me way motivated to get projects finished up! Its just the fundage that slows me down but I've been getting some good hours in..... gotta get my runner built BAD!

I took her to lunch today and told her she might not like her new clutch...... told her it was going to be pretty stiff and she just smiled and said: "Thats ok, I like it STIFF..."

twistedtoy92 · « **Reply #197 on:** May 02, 2010, 12:53:10 PM »

I always go to the store then the forum......

SOOOOOO...... I'm thinkin I'm going to get the torker cam instead of the crawler cam because I hear the crawler cam doesnt have much noticability.... plu I'm running the 35 pound flywheel so, I'm might get the mid range torker cam instead!

Input? Im ordering my head on Wednesday!!!!

Joey88RUNR · « **Reply #198 on:** May 02, 2010, 06:28:26 PM »

I have put the crawler cam in 3 motors ive built, ya not to noticable But a little. wasnt lookin to make big power though. I wanted to make sure i wouldnt have any smog issues here in ca.

Well I've been pretty busy with work and had family in town for the last week so i havent gotten a whole lot done. I did pull the cab off of my 92 and hack some more of the frame off. Havent touched my runner $I\'m Down$ waiting for the womans lift to get here and we are going to pick out tires and wheels for it today

Thinkin we are going with 33'' KM2s on black steels. Should make some sort of progress this week. Been doubling up on payments to get a little bit ahead before I go on my next spending spree for the 85..... All for the engine!
