For those who wonder what one might look like...







Damn she's purdy And damn they did a good job of taking care of it. That looks like a heavy duty crate. Thanks Nick and Eric!!

Should arrive here nice and safe on friday, and get put in over the weekend. My LE3 heads should be here soon as well, then all I have to wait on is those damn offset roller rockers from Jegs (on backorder)

I cant freaking wait

 

Congrats man! Thanks to your guys' advice, I went along and bought me a VRE block too. Must feel like Christmas as a kid again.

 

I just told my dad that this evening. I have so many packages arriving lately, its like christmas! This is the best christmas ever!!!

 

You friggin bastard. Niiice.


At least I'll get to see how Daniels car is gonna haul ***. Well, I'll see yours too if you're around when I cruise through SA in September.
I got the package you sent me today with the valves. I haven't opened it yet, but it feels like it's heavy enough to have a few other goodies in there too. Thanks Daniel.

 

I dont plan on going anywhere anytime soon. You'll have to get together with all of us sotex fbody people when you're here.

 

Definitely. San Antonio is on my agenda for sure. Get your LE3 VRE 383 up ASAP so I can hear it at WOT. Just don't get too wild or the SAPD will put out an APB and you'll be SOL.

I was hoping to have my LE1 package on the car by September, but... I'm being encouraged by more and more people to rebuild first. So it'll have to wait until after the trip.

 

Now that's what I'm talking 'bout Looking forward to good news from ya.

Nate, glad ya got the valves. I could only wish I could make that drive to KY. SOMEONE on this message board better be taking vids of the drive. Matter of fact Nate, I designate you responsible for doing tour documentary as you go through all of the states Nah, it would be nice though...

 

dude how much was the total price on that with shipping? that is sweet!!

 

I actually plan on it

 

You take your engine out from the top or the bottom??

 

Very nice, I'm officially jealous.

 

Sweet, your going to love it. I still get a grin when I wack my 385 VRE setup. Enjoy!!!!!!!

 

Looks great! There's no better feeling than when you get that engine unwrapped and on your engine stand.. lemme tell ya!

I can't wait to get my heads back and my new cam to finish mine up!

 

If the engine is built like the crate....it should be able to withstand a direct nuclear strike ..... very cool.

 

Since I already had the heads off, I just took it out the top. Well, actually the block is still in the car, lol. I still need to get a cherry picker There is a ton of room though. I just dont have all that room in my garage to pick the car up and take it out the bottom.
