You truck sounds cool. Why don't you try to bring it to Milford for our Saturday cruise nights some time?

Thanks!! Just drove it home tonite, still some tweaking to do on the jets, timing etc. Its plenty responsive tho, revs quicker than you know what and pulls pretty darn strong too!!! And thats on 87 octane too!! No spark rattle either, which is pretty good considering the CR is at 11.26:1 uncorrected! Soon as I get her done, I will probably try and do some cruise-ins with her this summer, next on-line for her is the bodywotk tho!
