What Part/s Did You Buy Today for Your Hobby or Project ???

[Budnicks]

Hi there, I was looking to use Accel shorty plugs in my 440 with Edelbrock Performer RPM heads and Dougs headers (2" primaries) I thought I found the right part no but they have the wrong thread. Were you buying the Accel plugs for a big block?

Yes my lowdeck, hopped up 6bbl, with ported Edl. RPM angle plugs
got them from Summit Racing 2) of them, #D-416S-4
are 14mm thread, long reach 3/4",
with a 5/8" 6pt socket body, like a peanut pug

My new band saw blade showed up today along with the filter for my solvent tank. Also picked up a container of solvent from TSC plus a Stoddard Solvent rated pump off of Amazon. Now I have the majority of pieces needed for the tank. Tomorrow I'll swap the blade on the machine then start laying out cuts for the exhaust system on Darrens Thang.

Got my Element fire extinguishers today. Tried to buy them from the manufacture, but they refused to ship them to me. Due to they only ship using UPS ground. They would not listen to me that UPS ships ground to Hawaii. Summit racing would ship them to me due to they drop ship from the manufacture. Found a place called Whitmer public safety group in Coatesville PA. They said no problem and shipped them to me USPS priority mail.

We have those too. Awesome units and don't do any damage.

Coatesville is not very far from me... Some rough areas in that town they have a HUGE steel recycling center there with a shredder.

Hauled hazardous waste out of the steel mill there for many years. Paid for my last three GTXs.

slowly coming along, seems nothing just bolted right on, Everything had to be hand fitted together.

Today I received the last of the parts/supplies/tools needed to put my short block together. Now that my solvent tank is operational[ ordered up a dish drying rack which will fit inside it], I'll start washing parts this weekend.

Almost four years after acquiring the current GTX, I scored a pair of near perfect OEM exhaust tips, bargain price.

My aluminum radiator showed up and the tires also came in today. I’ll pick them up tomorrow. I also ordered a wheel fitment tool so I can determine backspacing and then order wheels.

Don't remember responding to this thread but I've been getting rid of stuff. Getting old has a tendency to make that happen.....

Maybe a new thread: “What parts did you purge today”
