Eric, sorry buddy I have not been reading the forum much, just quick blasts.

I finally read this thread. Congrats on the new mods. Boy it sure is quite a bit different from before. Your dad is okay with the rollbar and all or is that you twistin' his are;)

Looks like we might have to update his web page. Did you take pics of the work?

Edgar. Yeah I really didn't intend to make the announcement about the stroker in this thread, it just happened that way. I was hoping that the stroker would be "discovered" at the next Corvette challenge, but there were too many astute CC racers at e-town the other night who noticed that the car was quite a bit quicker :D

It was his idea to do the stroker, even though that meant putting in the roll bar. Initially we were just going to do the stroker and leave the heads alone and hope that it wouldn't run quicker than a 12.0. But while we had it apart the "you might as well" disease struck and he said let's do the heads too.

Yes, I have lots of pics...

BTW you must do a great job registering the CC website, because if you type my name "Eric Fischer" into a search engine it comes up with a link to the article on the LT4 / A4 conversion! (it's about on the third page of hits) http://www.corvettechallenge.info/billfischer.php
