Burstall Pass may be one of the finest trails available within the Peter Lougheed Provincial Park. This trail offers absolutely amazing views and a challenging, but rewarding hike to the top! I hiked the trail on June 22nd 2011, the weather was great and the water level in the flats below Robertson Glacier had pretty much subsided. There were a few streams that we needed to ford, the water? Ice cold glacier water, crystal clear!

I recently received my pistons for the build.
I went with the SRP LS/VTEC Pistons, Part#149228.
4032 low expansion high silicon aluminum alloy heat treated to SRP specifications
Dome and dishes feature smooth flowing radii for excellent flame travel.
Thick ring lands for limited nitrous oxide/forced induction use on low compression pistons.
Valve pockets machined to accept oversized valves

I received the engine block back from the machine shop today. I had the following machine work completed:

Since the winter month’s are upon us and the drive to and from work is dark, I decide it would be a good time to upgrade the headlights in my 2009 Toyota Tacoma. Not that the OEM headlights are that bad, I just prefer the light output and look of the HID headlights.

My first car that I refuse to sell! A lot of blood, sweat, and time have went into this project. After acquiring the car in 2001, the modifications soon followed. Completed in 2005 and it’s been in storage since. My “Sunday Driver” only comes out on occasion and I enjoy every minute of driving her! It’s in mint condition and I plan on keeping it that way! Check out my other 1990 Honda civic car pictures and let me know what you think!

I’ll be installing the ACCESS® – Vanish™ Roll-Up Toyota Tacoma Tonneau Cover. Installation is very easy and takes only a half hour or so.  These instructions are for a 2009 Toyota Tacoma Access Cab with the cargo rail system, but I’m sure the process will be the same for most applications out there.

Short and sweet for today! The UPS man brought me some OEM Honda Parts, brand spanking new straight from Honda!

Here’s the start to a new project I decided to undertake, my LS/VTEC Engine Build. I’ll be building a LSVTEC Motor from the ground up. Using all aftermarket parts. My goal is to swap this motor into a 88-91 Civic H/B Chasis (EF9) and build an ultimate track/auto cross car. Since the 4th generation civic is so light (around 1,100kg) it has great potential and a great horsepower to weight ratio for this motor.

The Nihahi Ridge Trail is unique to the Elbow Valley and the Kananaskis regions. It’s trail stretches through the 3 ecological zones (montane, subalpine and alpine) and create the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rockies.
