Default It almost made me cry

I had a oil change yesterday and felt like I was hurting my baby. I put reg. Mobile oil in it. I have always put mobile 1 in it. I have to save all the money I can for this 422. The 422 is in the crate ready for shipping. The heads are getting the chambers opened up so the comp. isnt so high. We are getting the heads machined to hold the double springs since the lift on the cam is over .600. It should be going in the truck next month so keep your fingers crossed.

How did I know you were in CA without even looking?

$2.59 today for 91 in SanDog. $60 and I didn't even get a fill-up before the pump shut me down!

Right around $2.00 for the 93 here now. I'm pissed at Shell/Texaco and won't use them, because of the sulfur problems they had in the Louisiana and Florida area toasted the gas gauge in my wife's Grand Prix (but that is a topic for another thread). That limits my choices in my area. It is coming down.
