thanks allot of work went into it. it came out of a Chevy truck. I got it bored .40 over and decked for about 10.5:1 compression. I bought the Edelbrock complete top end package. heads, cam, intake. the pistons are forged speed pro. i had the heads professionally ported by Rehr Morrison. Should be ready to drop in, all as i need are my bushings , springs, and shocks. thanks.

Very nice looking motor. If your car looks as good as the motor you will have one bitchen ride. Keep up the good work.

not bad. how did you like that set up? did you do any porting to the heads?. my only concern is my rear end holding up, i have a extremely heavy right foot.

it worked alright, it sounded pretty lopey... no porting on the heads so yo u should hit 11's with no problem with traction. i ran stock 10 bolt only used drag radials couple times scared for the rearend's life...

just an update. i have all my front end almost together with poly bushings and tubular upper a-arms. anyone know what is the easiest way to get them front springs in? i am still searching for some good 1 3/4 headers. i decided to go with a stock car wiring system, push button start and a master switch. i will get some more pics up as soon as o get my camera working again.

for the headers do you want shorties, mid length or long tubes?
do you want just headers or a tuned pair of headers?
I have all those listed above.
if you want to get real fancy, I have stainless and titanium ceramic coated.
all new in the box(s) shoot me a pm if you are interested.
