Why do you think I put it in quotation marks!?! I don't want our special
vacation spot to be taken away from us and the other TCBers either.

Speak for yourself. I still want my Arkansas summer vacation to happen. I don't
hate you.

Oh, HA HA HA.
Dan says this because I asked several people about the clearance on the new
tranny. That I remembered 8-9 years ago that I had to make clearance for the 12
volt flywheel to mate with a 6 volt tranny. Nooooooooo everybody said, that's a
12 volt tranny. So up until around midnight when I could not get that final 2"
to go in, I took my socket and put it on the alternator and turned it. SCRAPING
METAL! JUST LIKE BEFORE! Then I would turn the flywheel and the engine would
move in another 1/8".
Then Chuck calls me this morning to see how it was going and when I told him
that I needed to cut clearance, he very casually said, "they didn't go with 12
volt until '67".
Well, WHY THE HELL DID EVERYONE TELL ME THAT I DIDN'T NEED CLEARANCE?!
So then Dan calls and I say the same to him, "Oh, yeah, he says, "Eric had that
same problem" WELL,WHAT IS THIS SOME KIND OF #@%^&*! SECRET?
Of course the Dan made fun of Eric, how he tried to cut clearance with a Dremel
like an idiot.
Well, I have a big ass rotary file that will cut it in 2 minutes, of course I
have to pull the engine back out. There was an old school fix that I used
before where you hook up the starter and spin the engine while pushing and
pulling and wiggling. The flywheel will cut it's own clearance, but you still
should pull out the engine after all that to clean out all the shavings. But
I'll bet that some people just leave them in.
Anyway, bottom line is, I hate you all.
