Looks like it's going to be a nice build Chad. Sweet engine.

Have you ever used a Butler Performance engine in any of your builds?

yeah Frank had it!! Car suffers from Project Creep. What started as simple DSE install, blast and prime. Has turned in to a full turn key one of kind custom. Frank just didn't have time in his schedule with all the other stuff he has going on. So Frank and I being such good buddies we worked a deal for my to do teh car and all the labor on it, and frank will still handle all the parts side.

WE have a Kaufman/Tin indian in the 71 Firebird we did. But no butler's personally. I have seen some and knows some folks with them and they all seem to be happy

The owner was looking to get the entire car done sooner then we could possibly do it without ruining our already behind schedule on the other dozen projects, LOL! And Chad had some time on his hands......................Plus I think I owed him one for one I stole a few years ago, LOL! This really works out great for all involved.

I'm spent the extra money to have a design done but have quickly found that getting a car looking good on paper and one that actually functions properly are two different things. I have learned some expensive lessons that can help this process along that I didn't know before. I'll save those until we have gone through the entire process since I am sure there are more lessons to be learned.
