I can't wait to hear how strong it runs. It looks purrrdy just sitting on the stand
 
Thanks y'all! Wish I liked cocaine, it would be a cheaper hobby. :eek:

"Our Kid's College Education" will be installed when the sun comes up. Still awaiting some parts though, so when it actually runs in not known. Need to get ready for Las Vegas.
 
Wow! Nice little ticket. Thanks for being so forthcoming with the hard part details. I'm sure this combo will put up some nice numbers. :rockwoot: Looks great! Keep us posted.

Found a crushed brake line from earlier, we have to fabricate another.

5 out of 6 engine mount bolts had snapped off in the engine mounts, no engine mounts closer than New Mexico, so we had to figure out how to get the snapped bolts out. Torch + Time + Blood knuckles and burned fingers = good engine mounts!

Headers haven't arrived yet, need to fab another custom intake to clear the LBZ manifold, LBZ waterpump requires custom radiator hose, etc, etc.

Not going to be running today, but just having the engine sitting there in the truck increasing it's value 200% according to Kelly Blue book! Heck, I almost feel good about making payments on the truck again. :D

Thinking of running a Banks Dodge intercooler, and if we do, the A/C must die.
