Got a big shipment of parts in today!

Several boxes there. I didn't get pictures of some of the stuff but that's a full set of March Pullies, ATI Super Damper, waterpump, alternator, a/c, etc. The other boxes are the Autorad setup!

This is just a mock up as all this will be coated black. Not shown are the closeout panels, etc.

My Mast Black Label heads were supposed to show up but they got delayed a day. They'll arrive tomorrow. Clutch will be picked up with the heads tomorrow. Already picked up the ID1300 injectors!

That AutoRad setup is rad! OK, horrible joke, but it is still a work of art!

Thanks and I agree. Hard to bring myself to paint it, but it will look out of place otherwise.

Maybe when this car is finished, Kalis and I can go hurt some feelings at shift sector event in old cars :)

I do not live far from auto rad and he said it will not cool as well painted. But yet there are tons out there painted. Any truth to this?

Are you warmer with a jacket on? Not to be sarcastic (well just a little), but I blew a high compression MC motor after I powdercoated the barrels. Heat dissipation is best done with bare metal.

Slowly being convinced to leave it bare. Gonna test fit it and see how I feel about it. Pics to be posted of course.

More parts showed up Friday. Still no Clutch, motor, trans or gas tank, but every little thing is another step closer!

Mast Black Label 256cc LS3 heads. They had these to me in 2 days! Fitted with solid stainless valves and .700lift beehive springs. 69cc combustion chambers. Should give me around 9.75:1 compression on the 427 :)
