We used to call 'em "lifter eaters" because if/when the timing chain goes, you've got a nice set of bent valves!

So I guess I should reset the redline on the tach? It's currently at 7200.

Sorry Rich. We've hijacked the he!! outta your original posting! But I honestly like your look with the whitewalls and PO1s. It's all about being different and definitely should get some attention.

Thanks for the kind words guys.. I'll leave the P01s on her for a while just to pi$$ everyone off at the cruise inns and shows!!

BKH, I would love to bring my car to VF, Do you think Big Daddy (Steve) will tow the beast there for me??? That's the trouble, getting it there... Would love to attend..

Mike, your Camaro will look awesome with the black steel wheels and poverty caps!! can't wait to see the look.. My buddy Carl is doing the same with his 68 Chevelle SS..

Rich
