Thanks Wally! I don't know why I waited so long to finally jump over but glad I'm here back with the grassroots dudes!

I'll do my best to answer any of your questions with the SOHC swap, I did it many years ago and have forgotten a little while the truck sat in the garage for 5+ years lol

We talked at the beginning of the year about getting on your race program if you might remember. I ended up with another wheel company for now but wanted to say thank you so much for the opportunity! Hopefully we can make something happen on the future.

Its been a little hit and miss.

Our first race we ran into a fuel issue on the first lap of the first heat, put us out about 45 minutes but got a 4th place finish and the truck was running great. In the second heat we pushed a little harder and the truck ran flawless and we edged out a 2nd place finish, beating 3rd place by 23 seconds. Man was that a rush!

Our last race in April we didn't do so well. On our first lap we started noticing a tick develop at RM 38 and it would get worse with higher rpm's, so in true fashion I slammed it into 3rd and put the skinny pedal down. Once we hit about 5000rpm the motor threw a rod and punched a hole in the block ending our day.

Looking forward to finding a new motor, upgrading to a Camburg full floater, and getting back out there for the race in September!
