Well I finally took the step and started my build. I have been shopping around for the most exspense which is the motor and finally have pulled the trigger. HKE in Houston is building a solid roller 408 for the powerplant in this car. Here is the car at the shop getting ready for the tear down. I have a good friend doing the valvetrain for the car (Matt510). Once the shortblock is complete the build pace should pick up.

It was a heads/cam 306 stroker motor. Runs damn good for a little ford motor. Never taken it full 1/4 mile but runs 7s in the 1/8

Ya, mine ran good for a 306, went high 7's in 1/8th and low low 12's in 1/4. Had mph to go 11's, just decided to switch to a 6.0 before I got to that point.
