The 170 is up to par and twisting. The new carbarator now has giving the low end response that it should now its time to work on rates. (New Plane)
I know that Tim, Robert, Clark and I will be there Saturday and I might be there Friday and Saturday.

We should have a great time. Wes is going to be there also! I want to check out your 170 and your setup with it. Got to get some ideas. Got some tricks for you with it if you havent tried it already with the carb.

How far from Nashville is this in time and distance? (car) I'll be in Nashville for about 10 days and might need a diversion.
