Very sorry to hear about all that flooding and the whole deadly story going on in Colorado. We had a small flash flood in town today here, borninabus was looking for parts in the trailer and came across a tub marked WATER! on the top shelf. We were talking on the phone and he suddenly stopped talking and I heard a loud SWOOSHHH! hehehehe. He tells me "I just pulled on a tub marked water! Now I'm drenched" When I put the tub there 2 months ago, I figured marking it WATER! would be self explanatory hehehe, he assumed it had vanagon radiator parts in it. Razz Sorry bro! Twisted Evil

Those Colorado Front Range Rains last summer did a number on my Cabin's Drive too. Sorry you got drenched by accident!

But I wanted to ask you about your VW Bus Engine, I see your running 044 heads. I have gotten a lot of advice saying I need to keep to stock sized valves when running heater boxes. They are suggesting L3 heads over 044 heads. How do you like yours? Any input on how it runs? Mpgs, How hot the engine is getting. What speed is it pulling hills in 4th gear now? Thanks! Any input much appreciated.

Dan

First glance of that photo it looks as if the canyons in your driveway are full of coins!
