Now I just hope Martin pulls through on his custom cam, has me a little nervous with all it's craziness. (he promises it to be a hit with the ladies and a hit at the track.. )
Also need this truck going asap, my XJ is a pretty sketchy operation for pullin the Baja... Last weekened even let my buddy pull us to the lake with his F150. You know that was tough for the old red to see lol.

Hopefully you will be bringing this beast up to Darlington for the 9 sec pass, let me know I would like to see it in person this go around. Think you will be real happy with that intake and setup. I was going to recommend Martin on CHP but seems you have already bear me to it. Good luck with the build man.

More parts in. More coming in next week, but then I leave for about 2 weeks on work. Getting excited though.

Tear down pictures... To the eye, all rods are straight. No cracked ringlands on the 7 pistons to inspect. No spun bearings. Also a nice junk of piston some how made it from number 5 to number 3 thru the intake?!
Number 5 hole just didn't want to play no more.

Denmah, not sure man. Maybe a stress fracture from the countless beatings? lol
Movin on though, got some cleaning and assembly done today. I now have everything to complete the setup minus the turbo. That should be getting shipped today.
I leave tomorrow for about 8 days on work, but once I get home it will be back at it!
Can't wait, should be a fun little small block!

Thanks guys. Kaine I tune it SD. Haven't checked fuel economy lately, but few months ago on the way to Ohio it was getting around 14 mpg. (E85)
