I guess it would be considered a 353, bored .020 over with stock stroke. Anyways, I just got it on the road yesterday, and it was sooo much fun I've already got 400 miles on it.

The valve covers are Proform, can be had at Summit Racing.

I have no idea how much it weights, but my best educated guess would be around 2900 lbs. I think I got too much torque for the rear.

There's more than that. Manley pistons, 6" Eagle rods, stock crank, AFR/TPiS 187 cc heads, cc306, Meziere electric water pump, Proform 1.6 rr, stock intake and some crappy shorty headers. Those numbers from last year with the cam only setup. Of course I still got the spray on it.
