Not needed but thanks. I'm just glad someone got to use all the tweeking that went into the tune. It was a long process. I'm ready to be out there also..I guess I need to go work on it. lol

pretty good ET considering first time out.

Once cool weather gets here and you get the old converter back in there, it should really move.

I was going to swap the camshaft, valvesprings, lifters etc.. so i just sold the heads complete since they needed nothing for a hydraulic roller setup and I wanted a little more compression for my 355. So I just got the whole setup from Lloyd. Later

Yeah Tim but I didn't open up the intake for a monoblade to fit so it will have to be a winter time project.

That's some very impressive numbers, congrats. I've met Tim, but haven't had the pleasure to met you yet, Clint. I can't wait to get mine back on the streets with the new setup. Hope to see y'all around soon.

Well if you see me at the track come over and introduce yourself. I swapped out the converter last nite and I am going back to the track to try it out on the 14th. After that I may pull the intake and port it to fit a mononblade and if it will actually make more HP. Later

So the intake that you're using now is a ported stocker?

Here are some pics of the engine before I put it in the car. Now I modified the intake after I got it from Lloyd b/c I had a guy blast it to powdercoat it and he was a new so he blasted thru the intake runner ports on one side. Since I had to have it welded on anyways I went ahead and removed where the fuel crossover was and modified the fuel rails. I can take some pics later.
