    true....I honestly was very impressed. I know with the drums, when I would foot brake around 2,500 I would really have to stand on them or it would start walking. The next time I go out, I will find out how high I can foot brake it!
    I am sure I am just being silly, but dang.....I can only imagine what power disc feel like :D

    5946,
    Sounds like it is running good. Are you going to make it to the Roundup in D.C.? If so, I can bring your transmission. I've got a new paint job and a new cam. Looks good.
