Billy Liber,

I think I have two 1968 Z28 engine blocks and they are late production MO blocks. Thinking that I have a July block. I have never seen an August dated block as this is when the plants were retooling for the next model year. Call me anytime. 410-781-0418. I'll check on Monday.

Jerry.

First of all I gotta tell you its not me today -- not many posts because of Verizon's terrible service here -- sometimes you try and try many times before I could get on on .

Now , on to racing -- Stock and S/S both got a round in and boy did it get slow -- most went .07 to .12 slower -- I spoke with some super class racers and their in the same boat .

Onward ................

Opps -- Almost forgot -- its me and 'lil Jeanie this round............

I was wrong-- Kenny Kopecky and I raced and he won a double breakout deal.......its round robin from here on ........and boy is it hot ......compared to the last few days .

Stock final -- it will be a first time win -- Jim Conte vs Dustan Lowell -- congrats go out to Lowell on his first Wally.......................

[Jack Matyas]

I can't believe it -- after looking back on the weekend and how terrible the weather was -- the fact that we got it in and finished early was nothing short of a minor miracle .Also the fact that the car count was down a little helped -- seems like S/S and SG were down a bunch-- and this is the first time I can remember at Englishtown that the Stock field wasn't full .Yesterday started out a little dreary but turned into one of Bob Freys' "Chamber of Commerce " days for sure and even the drive home was pretty .

On to Atco for our D1 marathon.............

PS - If you're reading this and at the office -- get back to work before the boss catches up with you .
