def sounds wicked! love corvettes that get modded. could just be the video but looks like either fuel from the an fitting or water off the bumper drops as soon as it fires. probably just a flare in the video but i would check to make sure.

thanks guys, no the fittings are not leaking. i do not see what you guys are seeing

nah no revving. it was cold and a fresh motor. i dont like to crank stuff up and go to gagging it right away. that was also the first time i have ever posted a video so i was not sure it was even going to work LOL, i'll get some rev vids. it revs FAST!!!

it is 398.7 which is 3.90 stroke .030 over

about 650 lift

hope to get it on some rollers late next week then i'll post some details and numbers
