    What did the heads flow? Cost of porting?

    On the intake, there is some smoothing that can be done to help, on the fore/aft edge where the airflow transitions from the carb flange into the runner plenums

    Int 340 @ ,600 and Ex 250 @ .600

    Chris skaling did all the work.

    And you are right there is some left to do. Best I could do with the limited bits I had at my disposal that night.

    Got the heads on along with the pushrods and rockers in and couldn’t resist bolting up the big shiny thing to it.

    Thanks to Ethan (Hugger) for getting the quarters in for me. Slowly moving in the right direction.

    Nice to have quarters that will accept a wheel well molding.

    Nice job, quick question.... what size are those wheels? 15X7 or 15X8? Those look great and I want to get them.

    Well, it’s about time to throw the motor and trans back in, start throwing parts at it and get it running.

    4.5 years later it’s running and driving with the fuel injection and 6speed. Still needs interior and paint but I’m in roadkill mode. I just want to drive it. Dakota dash going in next.

    Well it made it 5 miles! It’s at the new house now. Time to clean her up and start moving forward.

    Beautiful work and great engineering. For you Seinfeld fans - Six is good!
    What rear end type and ratio did you end up with?
    Where is the gas tank from?
