Who's doing the labor for you? Is that already added? When will it be done? When is your basic training/ait? Are you active duty or national gaurd? Good luck with your build and thanks for serving.

Wow, this thread came back from the dead. Thanks Mike for stirring up this thread, I was getting bored. Keep me in mind on those heads when you go to sell them.

Dave has been our savior so far

Ready to live in my LT1 for some basic install stuff this spring, Dave? Of course for a bit of a labor price too

Keep in mind to save a bit of the money too, Mike. Anything can happen. Remember what your Finance/Management major tells you

And jeez you have built this car fast! I'm still working on full bolt-on's.. College, general savings, and unexpected repairs tends to drain a lot of your immediate income.

Here's my bench racing status: I'm still fighting vibration issues after my new clutch & flywheel install, i sent it to Larry @ Speed inc to have it balanced together and should be here soon. Once that craps all back together and fine i can start on the fun stuff like my new heads/cam etc. I hope Santa is gonna bring me either the FAST 2 sensor digital A/F ratio meter or my 92mm HSW N20 plate
