I removed the fuel pump today. Next it gets shipped to PBJ so he can work his magic on my fuel system. Things are starting to move.

During the ROE install my installer drilled my pins at a bad angle, and Todd at Arrow did not feel it could be used again. So this time it will be keyed. The heads are are being worked as well. So things are moving along.
Just a few more weeks.

tinygiants said:Yes, my budget can not afford a different power adder. Besides, I am betting that my little Roe will surprise the heck out of everyone. I may not have the HP most of the big guys are sporting, but I will have suspension and tire size to use more of what I do have. That should help a little

It is getting close. The heads have the new Larger valves in them now. So they will be able to make good power. Not sure what the plans are for the CAM yet.
I do not have all the specs at the moment, but I will soon. I just told Joe what I wanted and the budget. The rest is up to him. So when I get the build sheet it will be like Christmas.
Thanks Dave.BigDave1970 said:Sounds AWESOME Dale. Cant wait to see you run out at bremerton this year!! Well, i hope you do!!
Prof said:Well, I hope Joe has Arrow do all the work so I can get my truck into his shop!
Nothing personal...but I want my forged stuff!
tinygiants said:To late Roy. My block and other parts were already on the way to PBJ. I beat you to the service line.
But one thing is for sure, we will both be very happy in the near future.
How much do you think the NOS kit would cost to do now instead of next year? If I did it now, I would only have to pay the tuning fees once.... That alone might be enough to justify it now.
