OK something of an update but only ran the ball up the middle for a 4 yard gain I'd call it. But it's some progress.

--Pistons are back and skirts coated
--New oversized pins are in
--Crank is being keyed and the bad snout has been repaired, should be on its way back from Marine Crankshaft soon
--Oil pump rebuilt and dyno'd and en route back
--Larger Braswell carb arrived and once final engine specs (cubes could change) I will have it sent to Braswell for freshening and road race float install
--New Dart main caps - they are out of stock or something so Mike is waiting for those to arrive so he can get working on the block

Should have my hands on the control arms from Jake on Friday. Looking fwd to that and starting to get things laid out for mock up then off to powdercoat.

Sounds expensive, I thought SBC were cheap

Glad you like it.

A little back story... IIRC the snubber wasn't played much by the snubbee. I'm guessing that's what that was about.

Def on your Top 10 gif list.

Hey what fun is it doing things the easy way?

Greg, how'd that "used" motor and trans in that Yellow Mustang treat ya? Yeah, the motor and trans out of the car being fixed.

It's going to work out fantastically just as soon as I back charge Charley (and then try to collect)...


Funny how these race cars actually cost real money.

So what are you saying; Don't buy a used motor?
