That two piece, adjustable degree wheel was a slick deal. His little magnetic based, folding pointer was neat too.
First time Red tore me down for a record (The new Dallas track in Lewisville) he wouldn't let Carroll Caudle watch him check the cam. Carroll had machined my block, and did the "trick" (at the time) valve job, and built a lot of engines. Carroll helped me take it apart. I think Red thought Carroll did the whole engine. Made him go stand about 50' away while he checked everything. LOL
Guess he didn't want Carroll figuring how to slip something by. Had me scared to death! LOL
I could have threaded a running sewing machine.
After that tear downs seemed a lot more informal. Red would actually joke around during checking it. Think some of it was to make me squirm. He got to be a friend.
