maybe do a ford 9 inch too!

Just thought I would update this post... I ended up ordering my ET Heads on Friday and my 408 this Monday! This thing is going to be a beast.
I still need to order:
F1 Head Unit
75# injectors
HPT or EFI Live
Wideband
And some other Misc stuff
I would say 2-2.5 months and it will be installed and running! Wish me luck guys!

Good new is I already have my ET240cc heads sitting at the engine builders, and once he gets the pistons it should go together real easily! I hope atleast.
I also already put my F1C head unit on my stock motor to test fit and it does in fact fit... Only GTO with that head unit that I know of, already talked to a few shops about fitment wondering how I did it.
For now I will put a larger pulley on the F1C and get it tuned so I can still drive it. For now I will probably just add lots of fuel and Do lots of logging, especially since my LC1 should be here next week and my HPT Pro with EIO already arrived.
I am stoked about getting this thing built and together... next step is the tranny.
