Dear Mr. Flowur, Matt:

<< I don't think 70 MPH @ 3500 is optimistic at all, both needles have read
 that since I glued them there.  I can even send photos..>>

Please make sure you have adequate ventilation next time you use glues. Don't
send the photos as they may be used as evidence against you.

<< Quite the opposite, actually I said it was BenT, or AFU, similiar to the
 problem with my ECU.  I apologize if that held some other meaning to you
 personally. >>

No offense taken. Thank you for that new acronym AFU = ALL Flowur'd Up?

<< Did I say stock motor?  It's actually a stock-car motor.  I had trouble
 closing the sliding door after I got in in, other than that the installation
 was easy. >>

I think they will fit better if you install th eengine on a swinging chain
mount immediately behind the driver's headrest. You can use a turbo 350
transmission to connect it to a Dna rear end. The Dana can be installed via
galvanized chains with padlocks to hold them in plae. This is will ensure
that you do not get yourdrivetrain misappriated by the local thugs. In a
pinch, you can use zip and or twist ties.

The best way to test the contraption is to spray gasoline in the rear
conpartment taking care not to spill any on the gorund as gasoline can
contaminate ground water. Now you can easily get your ride started by a
simple flick of a match or lighter. Do not sniff glue at least the last five
minutes before you you get started. Coroners can someimtes get consfused by
those kind of things.

<< She's 37, but what does she have to with it.>>

Quirky name. So is that like Seven on Star Trek Voyager? What's her sister's
name? 69?

very sincerely yours truly,
BenT
