After way too many projects, I am now starting the build of Jay's engine. I will still be juggling the build with a few projects, but here is proof of the start. This is the link to how it began: http://www.turbobuick.com/threads/with-your-help-the-dream-continues.427565/ Block is prepped...

Over a year ago I had two stints put in the ol ticker and found out a couple months and chest pain later that the doc installed the second stint blocking a branch artery. He tried for 2.5 hrs to correct the problem but was not able to fix it. I talked with a buddy of mine who is a doctor (and...

Here is a video of what I spent my day doing. I had to set up the airplane for United Airlines to show case their new 787. They are the first North American airline to fly the 787. I have been working on the plane for 4+ yrs now. Things are starting to smooth out. The United folks were REAL...

My kids bought me a flight on a B-17 for Fathers Day. Ya, they're good kids, though not really kids anymore. And they both went on the flight with me. We had a BLAST! If you ever get the chance to take a ride on a B-17 (or any War Bird for that matter) DO IT!!! I've been working on aircraft...

Here are the pictures of a frame off build we did for Dennis. It is an '87 T-Type that he purchased to replace one of the cars that was burned up in a horrific garage fire that destroyed THREE turbo Regals a few years ago. 6 months after he bought the car he was driving in down town Seattle...

Well, I just got out of the hospital after my third angiogram since October. I had two stents installed in October of 2011. I immediately knew something was wrong when he inflated the second stent. Something just felt wrong. Back to work a few days later, and because where I work, it's a 1/4...

For those that were worried...........(ya right) NO! IT wasn't me. I do work on the 787 and out on the flightline, but am smart enough to stay away from rolling wheels. We did have a guy a few years ago have his foot nearly twisted off on a 767 wheel/tire. I don't have any details on how it...

So.......Last October I had two stints installed in the ol ticker and immediately I knew something was a miss. Well, I went in for another angiogram yesterday. After more than 2 1/2 hours on the table they found that one of the original stints was installed over a branch artery (he said...

Well..........just turning 50, and have been a insulin dependant diabetic since I was 14. I've been having chest pain after long walks. Went to cardiologist and they just did an angiogram. I thought it would include a stripper named Angie, but boy was I wrong. It did include a couple of...

We finally got Dennis' StageII up and running. Its been a long road to success. Other than a few days of frustration over excessive oil pressure its been a straight forward build with lots of little cool mods to make it more reliable at 10.05@134.9999999 on pump gas and methanol. With a...

Dennis Hogans '87 T-Type is back to breathing. After splitting #2 cylinder twice in a StageI 4.1 he decided to build his 4.1 StageII on center for his street strip car. Being it was a full S2 engine with an external oil pump, we had to do alot of work to get it ready for install. First was to...
