My apologies for my contribution to that.
I love a joke more'n most anything, and that tends to get some folks going sometimes.

How about we keep this post about the Slant 6 and Hyperpaks. If you want to discuss religious matters, (which are not allowed here) then please move that to a separate post in the social section. I'm sure that won't end well. Thanks, Rick |

I did stop by the foundry on Monday and re-verified that he is willing to do them and that is a go. Once I get the manifolds back in hand (At the Mason Dixon Race) I am going to go back and see the pattern maker and get a written price on the core boxes & machining. If, after that meeting I am feeling good about it then I will cough up some cash and get him started on the work. Rick PS. remember, I said I am not jumping into this until my truck is painted and back on the road. So please be patient.

Looks like we haven't had an update in a little while. Has the pattern maker had a chance to give you an estimate yet? |

I did not get back to the pattern maker yet. Mainly because I just am not ready to start a huge project now. I am sorry for everyone that is wanting this right now, but I just can't do it right now. I would still like to do this project but I am just not sure when. I laid out a time line early on, and I haven't kept that. Life and health has a way of slowing things down sometimes. Sometimes a lot. I am glad that I haven't collected a dime from anyone. So I don't need to worry about that. I will keep you posted when I do start to move forward. Rick |

Rick, Take your time and do it when it makes sense and when you are ready. This is a hobby, and needs to be enjoyable, or why do it!? I find if I give myself deadlines and try to hold to them, I get down on my hobby - not good... Cheers, Lou |

Thanks for the update Rick. I hope I didn't seemed inpatient, I've missed out on some of the other group buys and wanted to make sure I didn't miss this one! |

if a person has no health, he has nothing, so like they said, take care of yourself first. Life comes before hobbies!!! these old cars and parts are our hobby, not a business!!! |

Thanks to all. I do have some health issues, but mostly it is my wife's health. She suffers from severe atypical migraines and has had one almost every day since Thanksgiving. For the last 4 weeks she has been on meds to basically put her brain to sleep and try and break the cycle of headaches. Currently she sleeps about 16-18 hrs per day. So when she is up I spend as much time with her as I can, to try and help her and encourage her. Right now I don't need any new major projects. This one will be a good one, once the time is right.
