    Hello from Forest Grove Oregon. I used to resole my old boots with contact cement and chunks of old bias ply tire. Throw a few screws in there and I was good to go. Trouble was, after a few hundred miles of walking, the inside of the boot wore out. There ain't nothing like walking on screw tips to remind you that sometimes a dollar spent is well spent!

    I know it's not possible for everyone, but I found it helps to have an old set of heads for doing this. Bolt the flange to the head and weld it up. Helps to keep it from warping. ESP on those flanges you buy. They are kinda light on the material. Great Vid Bob, as always.

    My Chinese HEI has run great for a year until I noticed last week that the center lug on the cap that contacts the rotor was worn completely down. I dont know how it even made contact, but it ran. So I switched the center post out with a AC Delco center lug from a delco cap. I also noticed they built in a safety mode for overrev. If you wind it out too high, the module shuts off the distributor. You just restart the motor up. If you buy a 1 wire alternator, make sure you get the one that charges at low RPM's. Some alts have a minimum RPM they will charge. Mine is for a tractor on my Chevy 355.

    She sounds real good, Bob, and those stubby pipes look, just right! If you’re interested, I made a video on my channel about rolling beads on tubing with a Woodward Fab bead roller. All you need to add, is a washer. At the end of the day, it won’t work any better than your weld beads, though.
