Finished product pics... and a list of broken parts Picture below of the assembled motor. Had it on the dyno before rebuild and it put down 385 to the wheels. Not bad considering I found 2 broken compression rings, 2 bent valves and 8 bent pushrods (7.350's were too short) and my rear blew up 2 days later.
Rebuild consisted of: new cam, main and rod bearings, hand polished crank, plasma moly rings, quick ball hone, hand port job on a set of SLP heads, 3 angle valve job (8 new intake valves), ARP head bolts, getting that V.3 cam dialed in - thanks to Mike from TTP, Felpro gaskets and a little bit of bling.
Putting it in a crate tomorrow and bringing it home with the car in tow on Friday. Back home for good.
Next up: tubular K-member and a 9".
