    Thank you Jan, was just getting worried but I know car stuff gets very far back on the back burner when your health is on the line.
    Will call him in a month or so,we were planning on a nice strong thumpin engine he was gonna build for the Poor Tourin X but his health and full recovery come first : )
    Someone will have to get him videos of the GS Nats unless that lights his fire too much!
    Glad yer surgery went well Gary!

    A Quadruple? Yes Sir, you are one blessed man for that being caught in time.

    On a lighter note can we call that a Quadrajet By-pass?;)

    Glad you are still with us(!)and know you are in a lot of pain(Dad had that)but prayers for a through and speedy recovery :)

    Heh heh I don't know a quadrant might be harder to work on
    I get them pretty close though. I know my surgeon never saw one.

    Reminds me of the joke about the mechanic who was rebuilding a Doctors motor.
    The Doctor stopped by to check on the mechanic he had know for years progress.
    The mechanic says ya know Doc there are a lot of similarities with motors and hearts,pumping oil,big air pump etc so why do I only get $100 per hour and you make thousands on a single job?
    The Doctor slapped him on the back as he walked off and said “next time try and rebuild it while it is running”.
