Well if it works out I may get this place to live in. 4 garage spaces (one in back)

Kinda a ways out, but a car guys paradise. Wanna come work on your car, I'll definitely have the space. And parties...........come on down!!!! Can't get too wild though, there is a neighbor 100 feet sway, but lots of parking room.

I"ll put whatever lift you buy in Mike. Your choice buddy.

Would be a great club house. Lots of parking for get togethers. Since there are deer everywhere we could have a "Deers 1" get together.

So............who's gonna help me move in?

I've got a line on new and used Rotary lifts. They go for around $2500-3500 installed.

I would definitely Dan, but I'm in the process of moving myself! :O(

IF you post when things go down, I might be able to rally some time!

Hope it goes through for ya! I used to live out in Battle Ground-its a nice place. You have the country, but you also have stores right in town it was awesome. Good luck and have fun with those garages!

Cool place Dan.

I would sure help you move, but you'll have to pick a weekday.

Well...........it's VERY short notice, but if we can get it, the move will be this weekend. We are thinking buying the beer (after we are done for the day) BBQ and free soft drinks during. Might run into next week, not sure though. Have to try and make a deal for it.

There is a second house that rents for $1000 on the property, and if I can buy it the payment will be about $1300 for both houses and the property. So.............live in the big house for $300 per month after the rent on the second house makes the majority of the payment. Sweet deal if we can swing buying it, but going to try and rent on a lease option for now just to get it.

I'll let everyone know the plans if we can swing it. I've got carb problems on my pickup now, and don't have time to fix it before this weekend. So prob rent a uhaul.

Great looking place. Let us know when the movings going on.

I'll let you know. Still trying to come up with some more $$$ to move in. And need to get my carb fixed.

I rebuilt it about a month ago, second time I've did this carb and it's back to the same crap as before already. Never had a holley beat me before, but this one has. I'm thinking there is some kind of internal flaw. It has never been perfect no matter what I've done to it. Savas tuning wants $225 to go through it, they have a flow bench and test it out. Seems like a lot of $$$ to rebuild a holley.

You've checked that all the gasket surfaces are absolutely flat? We've sanded them down before on a granite block and it made all the difference in the world.

Used a machinist straight edge. Dang thing worked for a week ,then went to crap again. Wont idle, surges under acceleration:, smells flooded.

Wish it was a TPI unit on it.

Who's rebuild kit did you use? I had loads of trouble with the echlin power valves. Finally broke down and went to someone elses parts store to get a holley kit.

Definitely has to be 100% flat on on the main body both on the metering block sides AND butterfly side.

Used a holley kit. Would never use anything else.
