Yeah Bernd, sounds like you have that big ole truck running great! I
think my better 1/8ths are around 9.75ish (that's from memmory though)
Dang, you're catching me..... in a sixer! AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Hey, would you be interested in helping me put a new cam in mine
later on this year?
Richard highly recommended you. I could drive up to your place like
Richard did. I can pay ya with BEER too...... ;-)
