I see you're doing it the sissy way instead of doing it with the motor in the car. J/K man. Looks good. I remember block prep being a total BITCH with the motor in car. Should be a piece of cake with it being out. Good luck.

Love the 4.30 gears, I would highly recomend them. I will be running a 26.5" tall tire at the track and will be fine. On the street, @ 75 MPH, I am at 2050 RPM in 6th.
