Smile GForce is kicking butt on the PEPPE project

Well LME built the beast and GForce is wasting no time getting my Mule put together, might be cranking her up tommorow or Friday, BMR TrakPak is left for suspension, Kmemb, Arms, Kooks headers and the engine are in, the gang up there does first class work! ...getting pumped up, can't wait for a Galveston cruise.

Brent, all that bling and no monoblade?

You will love it. A solid roller 396 is the best engine I ever had....the torque and power are there all the time!

Looks great man!

Looks great! But, Whats up with the link-bar lifters? Must mean solid roller, but you never know.

Where did you get that shiny thermo-cover/ water neck?

Thanks, she's a crazy custom grind solid roller & those are shaft mounted Jessel RR's...no valvetrain deflection loss at all. The shiny thermo cover was just my painting it with epoxy, was bored is all.

yeah Bro the monoblade might be next if I get her to crack 500 to the ground, I didn't really want to waste money on a mono with my plans late this year to go to raised runners and a supervic with 90mm tb....so I'm just up in the air hoping to get good power with this setup...if it's good enough I might just go find a mono somewhere
