We started out intending to build it to 427 Ci. The machine shop bungled it and we wound up going to 434 Ci. Nope we are moving the LQ9 oil pan straight over..

We got the motor sitting in the car today and got the Vic jr back from Specialized Performance Coating. Was really pleased with the way that turned out. Specialized Performance Coating

Not yet, we have to do some tweaking on the hot and cold side since I changed the intakes. Also had to pick up a new hood and we are waiting for the Co2 component for the boost controller to get int, should be on the road in a couple of weeks.Here is a familiar face

Wow boss, sounds aggressive. I know you love to drive this beast, so it's obvious that your shooting for mild street manors. Hope to see a street video and dyno numbers soon!
