    So it turns out there is a factory defect with this model carb

    the first gen has a really bad stumble off idle for a while Holly was replacing these with the next gen so have to call on Monday and see if thats an option 

    that is what I have been chasing this whole time.

    been more than 30 years since I last did this going to figure it out since easy enough but wanted to see what talent might be around here

    Ok so note to self call Udo when the time comes... got it

    And this will be on a big ol American piece of iron so plenty of room to work, you can actually sit in the engine compartment while doing this with room to spare....

    Have a project coming up and wanted to see if there was anyone here with experience using a degree wheel for a cam installation.
    Specifically for a Ford 351 Cleveland motor but that really should not matter.
    Have not done this since the late 80's so thought to check here first and see if anyone had the wheel etc before i went out and bought something I would only use once.

    I can not pimp out his services enough, he has now done 6 different motorcycles of mine over the years.
    They are transformed after his work.
    EVERY
    SINGLE
    TIME

    On the 990 it made it so much easier to ride off road I felt 10yrs younger.

    Bottom line for what he charges it is worth every penny and it if does not work for you he will definitely make sure to get it right.

    @Suspenders is the only person I have work on my bikes from this point going forward.

    You will not be disappointed.

    .... upon further consideration, maybe we see how many steaks I can cut from it, and when I get back from Idaho we'll throw it on my Traeger and have a little backyard cookout.  Dave, you're still invited even if you are mean to me.  Perhaps of snifter of your finest bourbon could restore the bonds of our tortured relationship.

    Probably looking at first week of October-ish.

    You want the mass of the whole cut if you are going to smoke it like a brisket for example.
    Otherwise small steaks (in my experience) just don't do as well on a smoker.

    @Zubb asked for the elk.

    I thought it was a shoulder roast but on further inspection it's back strap (never tried smoking elk yet).

    I drew any bull elk tags for this October so may get lucky and have some more then.

     

    Get me about a 10+lb chunk and lets give it a try

    I dont even want to guess what @Zubb is going to do with your meat......but you know he is not going to share

    Thanks for hosting Dave! Yes, your shop is my dream shop when I reincarnate next life.

    Great meeting all you. Most of the SDAR folks I met last time in 2009 have gone, so it's great to see there is still a good turn out.

    I've got an elk shoulder roast if anyone is interested in picking it up. Makes great crockpot pot roast.

     

    How would that work in a smoker?
    lets talk.....

    Perfect. I'll try to arrive around 1100.  I've not been to an SDAR event in a while. Looking forward to this!

    How many burgers you planning to make, need to know bun count (unless your bringing those as well =).

    Please let me know
