so finally got around to picking up the BBC, now to figure out how to build it. going to stick with the LS in the camaro but figure a BB in the c10 isn't a bad idea. How would you build it? plan is to put it in front of a magnum but would you guys do it different?

454 block dropped off with milidon splayed mains, the block ended up being a 2 bolt really low mile block. Why a big block? just cuz i feel like it :guns:

Ordering 300cc oval port AFR's this week, hopefully a big order from no-limit while i'm gone on this deployment.

heads are home safe and sound, not a lot of progress made beside laying out what i think my build plan is and listing stuff to start knocking off. Been slammed trying to get the bronco finished up. I'm deployed currently and with nothing better to do i played out what i'm thinking for the rest so far, getting prices kinda figured out so i can start budgeting out big purchases. If you guys have any recommendations feel free to chime in

thanx for encouragement, lol after building my bronco i am sick of buying things twice so a good build plan i can look at helps at least with me. especially with budget. now do i think i can afford a 8000 dollar hill born system ANYTIME soon? hell no but a carb and intake is a few hundred bucks till i can. BUT i will get the no-limit stuff as soon as i can afford it along with the t56, hopefully early next year. :G-Dub:
