the Used Parts Biz

So it looks like Speed Club is now in the used parts biz! I managed to scoop up some items here and there and am now finally starting to list everything in the shop (Chopper Shack). The plan is to list at least 2 new items each week on the site and in the cart. With the swap season coming up, Im hoping to move a lot of the stuff Im posting so get it while it lasts! In other news; Speed Club is now syndicated on Chop Cult. Had to do some quick code bullshit to output my wordpress site to blogger, then to CC, blah, blah, blah. Also, I obviously gave the site a new skin and we will soon be doing away with the forum and replacing it with a simple events calendar. If anyone out there has a suggestion, please send it. Now that the snow is here, I finally have time to clean a little house. Im working on a new shirt or two and some stickers. Lastly, Im hoping to do some collaborating with some friends this winter. As always, stay tuned.

Next time you need a part, email me first. If I got it, its for sale.

74″ of Love – part 2

Finally got the bottom end completed. Got that Andrews AB cam spaced out proper. Cone back on. Tappets and hydro lifters cleaned and neatly back in place. New rings on .060 over pistons. Cylinders torqued back down and I even took a minute to set the timing. For now Im shelving the motor and Ill come back to the top end when I have more free time. I’ve got a couple pairs of heads that I need to have blasted before I reassemble so I’ll just save up the extra scratch and service all of them at the same time. This thing is looking real good and should run even better. Much thanks to Gator and Bear on this one. They both really laid some knowledge on me during the entire rebuild. Learning shovels from the best in the biz is a humbling (and equally rad) experience. More from the chopper blog soon.
