I dident do to much re gap'd my spark plugs and made some carb adjustments. Granted the engine is supposed to have plugs gap'd at .60 I just dont think the stock HEI im running will put enough juice out for it. Other then that just alot of being lazy.

I changed my idler arm today because it caused my truck to fail VA inspection..did it in the parking lot of Autozone. It was pretty easy to be honest, I expected it to be tougher. 40 minutes of work maybe.

I looked at a shed the same size as the one I'm building 30x36x12 and sealed the deal with a handshake. Talked with the banker and with the local demo crew. Should have this puppy up by the end of February.

Drove the Truck yesterday only to find out I have a headlight out.
