Ericks Automotive recently moved to Enumclaw, and is it offering FREE pulls this Saturday! if any of you have followed the salt, this is where Willcoxs Garage
    ( sp? ) here on the hamb lets there shit fly among others before heading to Bonneville ! Show up and see if you can beat 690 to the ground from a daily driver? if you need info please p.m.me! Lets see what u got! Erick is the premier tuner on the west coast, and has opened his shop this day for who ever wants to give it a shot, and see what they have, or what they have left to get! this is an excellent opportunity for any local folks to get a base line, and work out the bugs, with out guessing! Hugs and kisses WC........

    that was fun!

    little old half worn out '50 Olds 303 in a '27 T

    two pulls, one practice run (amature at the wheel)

    and one decent pull

    max power 232.8 at about 4250 rpm
    max torque 327.4 at about 2350 rpm

    just about right for a 2000 lb (or less) bucket

    Went to Enumclaw, put my 50 in the show, got to ride to Eric's in Wilcox's bonneville roadster (thanks Mark), and won the plaque for best traditional hot rod. It was a good day all around.

    I missed your pull Paul, Alan and Kieth told me about it, nice work! I put the stude truck up and pulled a measly 120+ with your old motor! No wonder you changed to the olds! The high lite of the day for me was watching Mark Wilcox's pull! I've never seen a tire distort so bad! The low light defiantly had to be Pat Murphy and his 59 stude lark that made a neck snapping 18.5 H.P. to the back tires, my lawn mower has 19 hp! Sorry I missed you Paul, we will have catch up again later!
