Got my car running again after my SFT tool steel lifter fail, went back through the engine, did some more port work on my heads & the Indy intake, I went hydro roller & used the high rpm Morel lifters, you can set these .020 from the bottom out of the lifter plunger, the old SFT cam was 248@.050,.570 lift, ran 116 mph 3000DA,4100lbs, new hydro roller from Hughes is 255in,258ex @.050,,.608 .613 lift, also went from a 2800ish converter to a 4000 custom built lock up converter for my A518 trans from PATC , car feels MUCH better & faster, if the weather is good will go to the track next week,the 14th, will keep Y'all posted.

I got this yesterday..

VETTE-RODDERS,  I just got word from our member Glenn Edgecomb, that Randy has secured the Woodlands location for the weekly car show.  Therefore, this Saturday will be a "Trial Run" and we are invited.  Randy would like to remind everyone that he and his Team are trying to limit the first few shows until they get some experience with the new site.  But, please feel free to spread the word that they are back in business and be patient.

SATURDAY APRIL 14, 2018 - NIFTEE50EE'S CLASSIC CRUISE-IN - Open to 1979 and older cars.

TIME - 6:00 - 10:00pm

LOCATION - RANDALL'S (Woodlands), 2250 Buckhorn Place, Cypress, TX  77380.  This Randall's is located on Grogan's Mill, from I-45, take the Rayford Sawdust Exit and head West to Grogan's Mill.

ENTRY FEE - $10 for 1979 and older cars.  Spectators are always FREE so, invite friends, family and neighbors to attend.

Please join Randy and his Team this Saturday to kick off the 2018 Saturday Classic Cruise-In Season and show your support for this new location which did not come easy.
