Has the better than usual weather been helping with construction? I was up near Brainerd in mid January and the difference this year was amazing.

I'm glad Tim has been on the forums and hope he does well. I just wish I lived closer to his shop. (Not really, I keep the New Mexico weather.)

I am happy with the floors, I am not happy with Black shoes!!
My wife is accusing me of taking care of the shop better than I do at home. So I ask her "What the problem"

I am anxious to get some pictures of the dyno room posted.

We spent the day just working in the dyno room. Got most of the water line routed in and out. We have to cut new holes in the wall for the exhaust, so I am trying to engineer the best system here. I will try to get some pics up soon on what's happening. If I can time everything right, John from CHI will be in Minn. in a few weeks and we plan on getting together. Now I would love to have the 434 "Super Cleveland" on the dyno and done so he could possibly see it also. This would be neat, if it times right, to have you Gary here also. Anybody else who is close enough or wants to drive would also be invited to come over. I will post some dates and when I can nail them down for sure.

For those of us who can't quite justify plane tickets to see a motor run (almost though!), what are the odds of some video? Wish there was a shop like that around here; way cool to see yours come together, Tim.

Yes, I've been thinking about that too. We will do our best to tape the procedure.

I got an Email from John @ CHI. He is going to be in Minn. this Thursday. We will not have the 400 ready by that time. It would have been cool to have him here for the first run. I will keep in touch with you Gary.

Thanks Tim. I know some of you guys are watching this engine. I know there were many discusions on things like best heads for trucks; etc. This engine has the Aluminum heads for a couple reasons but one is weight. This engine is going in a 3000lb sports car and the difference in weight is worth it alone.

Gary
