^^ thanks bro..

Also I forgot to mention in the build that if you do not plan on starting engine right away it is good to coat your cams with this stuff.. http://www.torcousa.com/torco_product/mpz_spray.html..

this is the epitome of what a build thread should look like, thx for sharing!

it is useful, so informative, and shows the progress rather than just a bunch of pics

Thanks everyone for the kind words...they are a huge motivation to me and this is the main reason why I love building cars..


Anyways,, since it is about to be hump day (Wednesday for people that don't know). I had to get a workbench cause working on fold out tables is not cutting it for me...lol

I also cleaned up the garage just a little..





I might update little pics from time to time, during the week if something comes up that need to be posted.. Like little treats for you guys.. lol

Tell next week enjoy.

^^ no they are 806 heads... Those are just going to be temp to get the car up and running and then later in the year I plan on stroking the engine and buying some sick heads.. But all in due time.

Lol I meant 806 retarded swype. Yeah I noticed your head studs were on the perimeter. I heard 241/3 heads ported actually flow pretty well and get you another 30. Im sure you heard more than enough of trickflow and afr heads bring the best as well. Im ordering my compstar crank and rods for my stroker this week!
