@PMok do I get a star from the time we did the drive after cars and coffee to redwood and had Jack in the box?

Not sure if the question belongs in this thread (apologies if it doesn't), couldn't find a better fitting thread (should I have started a new one?):
any recommendations for a shop to do the Edelbrock supercharger install in the Bay Area? Ideally the shop has done a few (or at least one) by now so they don't have to learn on my car.
Thanks!

Neal at @The Racers Line is an authorized installer and has done a kit already if I recall

Correct. If you have not ordered it yet, I suggest you order it through him to save on the shipping.

Went for an all day drive today while the wife and kid were visiting the in-laws. Started with a little bit of Skyline Blvd and breakfast at Alice's, followed by some La Honda and Pescadero rd. Stopped by Jollibee in SJ for luncg then onto Mt. Ham and the Lick observatory. Biggest surprise of the day? Snow/ice at the peak! The shady sections of the mountain were icy and sketchy, so I took it nice and easy. Continued onto mines rd and I was greatly disappointed. They have replaced the beautiful smooth tarmac that I love so much to a rough, grippy, gravely surface. On the plus side, it gave me the sensation of going down a rally stage with the pinging of gravel as it hit the under carriage, just wished I had a codriver to give me pace notes

TLDR: La Honda? Yes! Mines? No! Mt. Ham? Snow!

[Pwolf]

Awww, I was hoping that gravel would be gone by now :\

[sftateofmind]

BigFatLip beat me to it!

I had some free time yesterday and decided to do the drive up to James Lick for the first time. I saw a lot of snow and the roads were super icy once I got near the top. Had to take it easy as well.

Had a lot of fun though, that road was rocky as well though. I didn't know it was different before, so I pretty much just burst through and enjoyed the ride.

Didn't stop on the more snowy side for a picture, wasn't going to chance losing traction on the ice and go off the cliff lmao.
