My New house

Well my new House has Landed! Promised the Misses a New House 25 years ago ! But Crop failures 3 years in a row kind of put me into some serious debt !! Well the day has Finally arrived !!

!920 sq/ft , styrofoam block basement 13 1/2" thick , house is 30'ft wide x 64 'ft long

a 10 ft x 30 ft deck is going on the front , and the above ground walls of the basement are being covered with the fake brick like on the front of the house

You need to put a shooting bench on the front porch when it's done!

As long as the shop is bigger than the house, you're good to go!!

The garage is for her to park her cars in, I have to shops already a 40' x 120' one and my main shop is 32' x 40'

Been working 18 hr days finishing the basement , wiring, framing,drywalling , trying to get farming harvest done , ordering racecar parts so we have motors for Las Vegas SSCN mid November and the bracket Nationals the following weekend and have enough parts and pieces to spend racing the southern states `for 16 weeks come Feb 10 as I'll be leaving my race operation in Las Vegas for 2 Months !

How's the 2nd gear trans brake coming along Frank?

Hope to have one on the car at Las Vegas ! I have 6 basically built ! just a matter of finding the right orifice sizing for the 2-3 shift ! too small you get shift overlap , to large you get a fair on the shift ! and I'm fussy ! I won't sell one until it's Perfect!! The VB's will be a complete kit with a modified sonnax servo. larger piston apply and different servo lever , pulling the trans off the dyno is time consuming! If you have a spare week come up and I'll put you to work testing!! I will not let a half baked part out of my shop! PS you can have a Free one then! and know it works !
