The heads are stock iron that have the chambers now at 53cc ,the roller rockers as I was told ( bought them from another member ) are made by t&d machine works in nevada. the block is a 350 block bored .040 over so I guess it is not a stock small block anymore. The underdrive pullys turn out to be at 65% of stock so it should help a bit too. Hoping to get it further along this week so I will post some more pics as I go....
I know I know......its been some time....but as I explained to sean.....my wife likes my money more than I do. And I would buy more parts but she is really smart and knows what parts cost !! I will take some photos this week with the update as all I need know is a radiator and NO RAIN !!
finally got the car out of the garage and ready to roll...primed the pump yesterday and it may just be a great mothers day gift for the wife when she hears it run....:beers2: http://s1021.photobucket.com/albums/af334/swannymh/

On the road first time today.......will say it has a ton of torque as just cruising it squreetches both tires all gears. I think with the open plenum I am going to have to go much bigger on the pump shots as there is a bit of flat of idle. I will say that at 4500 it feels like it wants to just start to go but I am still working it in so a bit longer. Everyone thinks it sounds like a big block so maybe they will saty away o No:
