I want a ride! Think you'll have it done by late May? I'll be out for a week... Lou |

Not likely done this year (not the top of the hobby work schedule), but how late in May? Eagle Field's the 20th through the 22nd, you can take a ride in the 'Brick. |

Hmmmm. That would be super cool. I arrive 5/21 evening and will most likely go to friend's place in Oxnard for that night. Where is Eagle Field? Lou |

About 4 hrs. north on the 5, it's listed on Google maps. May be a bit of a trek for you from Oxnard but if you do, we'll be running Fri, Sat, & Sun. |

Thanks, Dick. That will be too far to go for this trip. Maybe we can catch up during the week after that? Maybe you can email me at dart270 at gmail...? Lou |

Back at it, the oil pan & pump pick up this time. "Adjusted" the pan angle to match the mill's 28* tilt. Modified the pump's pick up to match. Defeated Buick's "floating" pick up feature, keeping it flush with, and right at, the bottom (like the /6). Perhaps call it a Sl8 ?     Exhaust up next.

Wow! That is beautiful work! It looks just like a longer version of a factory Slant 6 pan! Very, very cool indeed!

Yes, super tidy. It looks like I'll get to see this beauty in progress in a few weeks in person. Vacation in LA. Just spoke w/Mr. Old6Rodder hisself... Cheers, Lou |
