Its alive! Its alive! Ooohh, its alive!!! Big thanks to Combination Motorsports here in Vegas, we finally fired up the 408 they built for me.
I'll be driving all day tomorrow, can't wait to get some miles on her so I can dyno tune and get on it.
I think I've got the first GTO with a stroker out West.

Thanks.
I've been driving all over today to get it broken in this week, so we can stick it on the dyno with the wideband.
It's a 408 built with Eagle rods/crank and Diamond pistions, all balanced/blueprinted by the guys at Combination Motorsports. I've got the new design Patriot ST3 LS6 style heads, Comp Cams 242/246 cam(don't remember the rest of the specs), ported LS6 oil pump, double roller timing chain and H.S. roller rockers. I also added a Spec ST3 clutch, and Walbro 255 fuel pump.
If anyone's in Vegas for SEMA, you are more than welcome to check it out.

Awesome setup! 
How's the drivability?
My old man is looking to go with a 408 iron block this winter with AFR heads and a decent-sized cam, but he wants it to have good street manners.
