Yes I know that's four questions :) I'm loving the colour, stance & workmanship of this beast. And lastly yes isn't it awful how life constantly gets in the way of the projects we'd all rather be building & putting our time & $$$ into. Where do I complain about this?

The engine is a Katech Stroker LS3. It is 7.0 liter all forged with CNC ported heads. It's rated at 600hp and 580trq with the mild cam in it. I'm going to run it to start and cam/intake it to about 700hp next year. The car will be used for Pro Touring events.

Weird both blew out on their own.

More importantly, that '64 needs some love! :superhack: + :weld: + :morepower = :bigun2:



Ya, guessing once one blew the other was right behind it. Must have made a big boom LOL.

64 is waiting for Sam Farrington, someday I may adopt him and I want to have a project to work on together Ha ha.

The car has only recently been moved to the new building....not even done yet. I'll post some pics of the outside of the building later. It's 45 X 80 with 14' ceiling and a 16 X 80 storage room upstairs to store all of the parts :ups:

Here is a shot before the outside was completed. Bottom is stone and front has craftsman style posts.
