Default Newbie here.

Hello everyone,

My name is Larry and I am a retired machinist of 43 years. I live in California and I am not proud of it ! LOL. I am 62 years young and started racing motorcycle flat track/short track last year. Racing with the young bucks is keeping me feeling young! Hope I can get a bit of help with the electrical on my 2006 F150 4.2. ---- Thanks all----

Thanks Phil, I put alot of work into the engine. Aligned the crank bores, balanced the crank, ported the hell out of it, squared the cylinder deck, lots of mods! It is a 250 but I think it will run with the newer 450's and 500's. I just got it back together after I blew it up last year. It's much lighter and faster then before. I got a second place on it on a short track against bigger bikes last year. I have my sites set on a first place this year with some luck of corse. I just turned 62. Don't know what is left in the old tank but I will be sure to give the young bucks hell!
