No power adders. I put a tubular k-member in it to lighten the nose a bit.

I have to spray the engine bay before the motor goes in. It's just about ready for paint.

I'm guessing it should be in by the first week in Nov. I waited this long I'll wait a bit longer to get it right.

You are smart in taking your time. I took an entire summer to build my 306 and get it slid into the car. I started building it when I got out for summer break and it was back in the car and running a week before the fall semester started. It's better to check and re-check and then check it again to make sure its all right from the start.
 
I'm hoping to break into the 12's, Paul :)

Actually, i'm looking to upgrade the combo already. I REALLY wanna have the heads ported or sell them and pick up a local guys fti afr 185's he'll be selling. Then either another bigger fti cam or an anderson hi rev cam. Maybe a set of 4.10 or 4.30's and then have a real collector welded on my bbk longtubes with a 3" mid pipe. My girl just dumped me so I should have more time/money to waste on my car :cool:

I'm hoping to get to englishtown next weekend for the fords at englishtown event.
