Default More cubes for me :-)

Finally decided to spring for a bigger LT1 combo. I hadnt really planned to, but I had a 396 assembly for a customers SBC. His block hit water before the rods would make the swing... So it only seemed logical to keep the assembly and put it in my spare LT1 block being it was going to be a pain to send back. Car is also already apart as well so I thought why not. The 355 combo i had went 7.20s at 3700 lbs. Should be interesting to see what the 396 does. Working on porting the heads now. Cam specs are 289/299 advertised 237/247 @ .050 .618/.613 lift on a 114 LSA. Just finished the 1st intake port. 2.055/1.6 valves flowed 308 at .700 lift. Heres a few pics of the progress.
