new guy rocks the boat. (he he)



well, thanks for the warm welcome guys! 

I am sure I will be tapping into this resource over the next few weeks
untill i get the car up and going.  i wish i had the pictures in digital
format. the block itself is beautiful.  i plan to be able to eat off the
engine / trans combo (might just be doing that it is costing so much).

i dont want to rock the boat, but has anyone considered a little more
"central" location for the rocco fest

Cathy! Fresh Meat!....
Ohh Sorry Paul, Welcome to the list.
I like the tall 5th as well. I want to put that in my 16v/9A conversion
in my '81.... Got to get it running first though... These guys know more 
about Rocc's than any other place on the net.

Have fun with your car, drive safe...

Julie
