Default current motor pics

This is my L92 427 with my new Kooks 1 7/8" LTs. And the custom TB spacer/throttle cable holder (thanks to Nick at Newtech Performance for making it!). The motor should be finished in the next couple months! Stay tuned for more pics of install and dyno.

What are you using for the rotating assembly?

You pick a cam out yet?

Nice setup. I'm a little ahead of you, but am putting together a 427 L92 from SDPC with ported TSP L92's. Cam is a 250/262 113. I ported my L76 intake, but may end up with the Carb intake. Going in the 3000lb or less raceweight SS with Rosler RVMB TH350.

Look forward to seeing the results.

I have the compstar crank/rods as well.

My car is 90% complete, but the track doesn't open until late april so I'm in no big rush. Probably have it running by the end of february. Should give me enough time to work out the bugs and dial everything in.

It sure is fun with these builds isn't it!?
