RE: Weekend Work!
Well I don't want any balooning like you also, so I might go with the bow-ties the ones you were looking at, or the Axial Terr-izers like the ones I have on my blue Savage they hardly baloon if any. They are the tires on the right in post #29 of this post.

RE: Weekend Work!
whats the difference between the xl chassis and the flm chassis? as you see im doing alot of work on my truck. i just ordered my lst shocks and i just won the bowtie tires wrapped in wabash wheels and i ordered the shock coversion kit...when im done with all of this i might get the extended chassis, but im thinking just going xl width because its more light weight...i dont know..im still thinking on this

RE: Weekend Work!
I am getting closer on my project. I put a Picco 26 in to set things up. I am missing the pillow balls for the turn buckles, a brake lever and piston. I have a rx on the way. I made a Tower Order for the missing parts. I think I will want a shorter header too. Where is that missing P3? [8D] Bud

RE: Weekend Work!
Oh man it's like putting a puzzle together, you think you have all the small things and their just out of reach. Hey that .26 looks pretty sweet with the Nova head, I have one on order. Mines coming together nicely, but slowly. Ya a shorter header will leave much room behind the engine. Hey BB have you ever run your stinger pointing out like that in the past? I hate all the unburnt fuel on the side of the TVP.

RE: Weekend Work!
Are you talking about my fancy fabbed hanger 
my bolt instead of a set screw or the sideways stinger, like the one that exits the side of your beautiful Chevy? [8D]

The 2nd one, because I wasn't going to comment on the painstakingly hand-hewn hanger:P I've heard you should never compliment an artisan's craft.
But yes, the sideways stinger is the way nature intended[8D]
(and TY BB, you're too kind. The Savvy is blushing:P)

*EDIT*
That is, with a Savage-specific down-stinger header

RE: Weekend Work!
It will probably wind up stinger down when it is all said and done. The header I have on there is long, especially for a picco. I ordered a couple more Tsais headers, they have a wider range of options for spring placement. With this particular header, the next rotation is stinger towards the chassis a little. I promise to swing by and pickup a set screw..... Bud

RE: Weekend Work!
Well going good. I going to have to put my current P3 in it, I'm waiting for a new cooling head until I get enough cheese to to buy a P3. I'm in Columbia MD now and won't be home to my babies until Sunday
. Hopefully the cooling head will be there when I get there, then I'll get some new pix out.

RE: Weekend Work!
Here's a few GANGstar305, my Nova cooling head came into today. Looks like I will have to clean up the P3, because the NH is beautiful.
