I learned a lot and made many new friends. Overall, it was a very positive experience in spite of the stress and hard work. I, along with my opponent, ran clean campaigns. As an American, I'm grateful for the opportunity to directly participate in our political process.

While my intake is for a 4 BBL carb, Stovebolt also sells an Offenhauser intake for a 1 BBL carb -- see http://www.stoveboltengineco.com/acartpro/product.asp?productid=106 (no online photo at this time). I'd recommend checking that out. By the way, how do you like the Jasper rebuilt 250?

I appreciate and want to try to learn the low hanging fruit. Being a person that always focuses on the future I find it hard to think of shorter term and more realistic goals but it is a very good point. Thanks for sharing!
