Really pleased with the new engine! Test and tune day was running 8.20 with ease. At the end of the day, we swapped my carburetor back on, that was the supposed culprit. Pappy looked it over really good and we documented the jets etc. Came back on 4/21 with the carb on and new wheels/ tires/...

No, Nothing catastrophic. we rebuilt the Carburetor, and put in new Plugs. the car would run 8.4* one run and 8.7* or worse, the next run, spitting , coughing etc. I found some slop in the Distributor cap on my last run of the season...it coughed and puked off the line to a 9.something, and...

We started out the year struggling. bad valve adjustment, bad alternator, rusty reaction time... But , I am here to say, that I have gotten the valve train back on track, replaced the alternator, and even replaced the hacked exhaust for a better design. And , with the almost completely worn...

Today wasn’t a hard day. Just cleaned up the coil brackets and swapped out the Fi intake for a carbureted manifold

Little bit of progress today. Comp Cams spring compressor worked very well changing the springs then I swapped out the cam for the sloppy 2

Put the recent clamshells on. Lowered the engine , but I couldnt clear the headers. Moved the mounts just a little bit forward, Massaged the firewall and it's sitting in there with good header clearance. BUT.... I put the truck pan back on, I still have about 6" ground clearance, and since...

I came across a G body Cutlass with a SBC in the pick n pull. All things considered time and labor, I probably would have broke even. I am also thinking about swapping in a sloppy 2 cam
