These last two weeks have been interesting. I quit the truck driving job. They must have thought I was the only driver that knew how to get to Virginia. I'm back to working on cars. Not just cars but Real Cars. 2013 ZO6 with a Keith Dorton 700 HP engine. Anyone who say's installing an engine in a C6 is easy...never did it:) The other was a '57 Chevy
Widow Maker. Real deal F.I. I didn't have to deal with the injection it was done and done well. I have to put the same unit on that '64 Corvette B/P race car though. It's been decades since I've worked with it. Hopefully it's like riding a bicycle. It's got a Holley on it now but the Driver/Owner/ Lifelong Friend wants it the way it was...I hope to live through this

Those Gen III/IV (port injection/standard lifters) LS's are amazing to tune and make sing.

Stunning work. I bet it lopes like a dream.
 


So I showed this to my annoying liberal co-worker and he didn't seem to find it near as funny as I did...

I guess I should mention that before I came across this, he told us that he was going to an action figure convention this weekend to sell some of his pieces...

AND he was in the Navy...

Good on you for trusting your instincts and going for it. Driving truck is boring AF.
 
Judging by the photo is why they used Kamakazi’s!
👍
Reminded me of when I lived in Cambridge UK for a few months in the ‘90s. We walked out of our favorite pub, The Library, one cold night… buddy yells out “it’s bloody Kamikaze out here.”

I’m just about to ask when another buddy says “he means ‘There’s a nip in the air’.”

Ah the British…

Don't denigrate the Navy with such filth as your coworker.













It's my turn in the barrel. Hold on, brb.
