She's alive!!!!!!
 

Well after a few little mishaps and findings my old 383 was retired and with huge help from Don (slowhawk), Marcel (Tracer-x), Josh(snowking), and a few others along the way. i know have my 418 w/ trickflow 225's up and running :devil: this car will be an animal !!! still a few small tweaks and final tuning :burn: even though its not done yet this setup is already alot more potent then my 383 was :D .
We also freshend the tranny up while we had it all out.
there were alot of laughs, a few tears, and "time is money" threw this whole time .
the shortblock came from Virgina Speed and built with some of my previous components by Shawn. Thanks Again Shawn! the Captn.'s Definetly on me Next time.
Don has been crunching numbers and working on this combo in his sleep since the begining and so far i am more than happy! even though he wants more as the cam is beyond small for the cubes :jest:
Don thank you for ALL the help threw this Whole situation and Being supportive on my down days with it and of course all the help and just being a great friend the whole time also. no way i could have done this w/o you Sir!
with all the extra time you have put in the late night last minute head install, calming me down when i wanna flip out lol. and of course having the patience for the whole project.
Marcel as ive stated many times before i still cant thank you enough for all the help threw this project and knowing what else is going on in the backround right now too. no Way it would have been done w/o your help.You defiently stepped up and made this happen for me man. i really appriciate it and all the help and hours youve put into this as well.
Josh, thanks for dropping the piston ;) no j/k man i really appriciate all the help youve put in as well and putting up with me on the bad days lol and throwing of stuff. you dont even flinch to go and help someone and i really respect that as a good friend .

Cant wait to get this baby all finshied as the prelim numbers and feel are AWESOME!!! i really cant thank y'all enough

Woah, wasn't expecting this. What happened to the 383 anyways?

Car should be quite the different animal! Congrats guys and Keith on all the hard work/effort. Can't wait to see it.

Looking forward to seeing your results.

Im sure your going to be very happy with the end result. those Trickflow heads are awesome!

I might have to step up my game now :secret2:

I better see a 9 sec pass this year... congrats on the new motor and hope it all works out...

He needs new tires for that:D

haha nice, cant wait to see what itll do. sounds like a really nasty setup

had an issue with the cylinder walls from my own mistake

thanks though

yea still working on that too :emb:

Keith what up? Its been a while. Well as sucks to hear about your 383. Well on the bright side sounds like this one is bigger and better. Cant wait to see what it will do. :)

Sounds good Keith! Glad to hear it's up and running.:D

Hey man, glad to help out one of my Best Friends! It's been a long time coming man!! I can't wait to see you rip it up this year. :usa:

Sounds like quite a monster Keith! G/L with it! :chug:

i'll go warn the uxbridge police tonight lol

Congrats Kieth I am sure it'll be bad ass no doubt and your all a great group of guys!


I blame Marcel he got all serious first.

That's messed up John! :jest: Always picking on me!! Hope you and your woman are doing well!! You got to stop by again when you get a chance. :usa:

No problem keith, all good freinds should drop a piston every now and then. Hell I could have thrown it and then ran it over, in the end you didnt need it anyway.

But on a serious note that car is a torque monster, cant wait to see it run. Hopefully you will learn how to drive by then.

You didn't just say that:lurk:

Great to hear your up and runnign again. Sounds like you cry & throw things almost as much as me. :jest:


& no Don, I still have not pulled the valve cover on the passenger side. :bang:

Glad i could help out Keith,i'll def take you up on the Cap'n

Glad to see it up and going for ya. Next time I am up to visit we will have to go for a little spin. LOL
