Default How to.......

Rob Clarke showed me how to move a Chebby six without the luxury of an hydralic bucket on a tractor..... I was amazed how easy it pulled th engine out with out any damage...... follow the sequence of the pictures.... a couple of 2x6 a one tone come-a--long and brains...... engine dropped right in the trailer.... turned out to be a 261 block with 235 xx848 heads........

You learn all kinds of tricks at the Meetings at Gracies...

All the ladies were asking about you but we covered for you and told them that this was the last weekend of your sentence and you had to make up a couple of extra days,....


And if Max shows up we are going to require your interperative skills...

Default Who Needs the Blue Pill?

Not that I'm braggin or anything...but, you don't need the pill. Just watch the youn'uns strutting around Gracies! Almost as exciting as scoring an orange CMP!
