Default Here's what I've been up to...56k nO WaY!!

After a cam swap project that was suppose to take a few days back at the end of april and after several petty issues such as oil leaks, coolant leaks, 2 bad WP's (running 270°+ several times) and having all 16 NEW valve guide seals tear apart and flood the engine with debris has turned into this ↓↓ ....





















The blood that was shed... (ATF)

yea that is road grime on the trans.

the dog is definitely bad ***!! lol it is a whippet.

plans for the car are to keep the cc503 cam and valvetrain i just put in.

machine work is almost done. it consists of .030 over bore, stock .010 under crank, reconditioned stock rods, Speed Pro forged pistons. Block was decked .010, Heads are being ported, bowl and chamber work, and 3 angle valve job, milled .010. compression is gonna stay around stock 10.5. This is all the budget permitted as far as motor work.

i ordered a yank stall and b&m cooler to go in it.. I'm really looking forward to that!!

other than cleaning up parts and painting stuff that's about it other than finishing the tune that was started on it.

I'm not really worried about it since it needs a paint job anyway.. and its a wood floor.
