The motor arrived to keep us warm in this record setting cold spell. you can just feel the power in the crate.

The truck is coming apart this week after final body work. The engine gets dyno'd on the 24th. And the reassembly shall begin. We have had to slow down so that the Bob Ryder of Truckin magazine could cover even more of the build. There has been about 20 pages thus far covering the build in 3 issues. He is covering the paint this month and the upholstry and details next.

I saw that you speedster project is coming along nicely.

We are starting in The 500ci Prochargered LSX 67 chevelle with C6 stuff next month. So We had better get to work.: unibrow:

Thanks for the positive feedback guys.

Anyone know of a company other than Katech and Nasty performance that makes coil pack relocators?:)

ATS, one of the sponsors on this site. Nasty made the finned valve covers for the truck. I have a set for the Truck if you want to see them next time your in town.

We finally got the engine in the car to mock up the drivetrain and get everything level!

What a huge amount of work and craftsmanship. I know how much work went into mine and to see something like this come together...really mind blowing.

Yes, what Payton said. :bow:

Wow! You are basically building an entire new car there. Lots of fab work; looks great.
