Hi Chris,

Where are you located for everyone on the forum that doesn't know.

Do you have a dyno?

My workshop is at Padstow, 71. Davies rd, cnr Bridge st.
I do have a two wheel chassis dyno capable of handling up to 1500 rear wheel hp.

I'll be in touch when the Olds arrives as well. From what I know it's done around 70 miles a year for the last 10 years so there'll no doubt be a few bits suffering from lack of use,(like it's owner) although it's had a carby rebuild by an Olds mechanic and God knows what else. I'll definitely be driving it so an expert assessment will be one of the first items on the agenda.
I look forward to catching up..... and checking out the 426. I love Hemis!!:way:

Chris,

You should invite us down for some sort of saturday bbq and workshop talk, it would be fun if you could work something into the calendar, say august/september.  What do you think?

If you do a garage/dyno/BBQ day on a Sun, helps people that work on a Sat.
Do a chev Vs Ford Vs Mopar Vs Pontiac  Dyno day.

That idea crossed my mind several times but unfortunatly my workshop is filled with project cars right now that would take a few more months to sort out. Even my Challenger is parked on top of the dyno and it is a mission to get to. Talking of august/september is more realistic and achivable.
Of course that does not mean my dyno is not available, it gives me a chance to fire up the Hemi and move it out the way. In the meantime of course everyone is welcome to drop by and have chat while you are drooling on my Hemi  :smile:

Cheers, Chris.
