What's your winter project?

Now that I have my handy www.kwiklift.com lift I'm going to put in the headers I've had for two years now along with my soon to be had 3200 Vig. and some 3.73's. Whew... maybe that's a little too much for an old man like me? Then next spring in goes the 150 jet Boy, wish I was a Westsider!

Re: What's your winter project?

My winter project is...

GRADUATING!!!!!

Commencement is December 14th and you can watch it on the web with RealPlayer here: WMU's Commencement Ceremony I'm in the College of Business which is the 9am ceremonies.

After that, my project is starting my own business. I'll be doing web design, graphic design, and digital photography. (Anybody need a website...?)

So car stuff is kind of taking a back seat until I make some $$$.

Just bought an LT1 Cam

I still have to give Duke (Joe) his money for the Edelbrock Performer intake and Elite Series valve covers. Don't worry Duke, the money is coming man.

Then I gotta get valve springs and timing chain and the swap will begin.

I'm trying to get better prices on the aluminum. If you need one real soon I can let you have mine though. I'm trying to keep the price around $60.00. I saw where you used the "N" word in another post! Let me know if you plan to put the bottle in the wheel well. I have the trick set-up bracket for that. I have them ready to go $40. out the door.

Cool winter project

Well. ummm.. Im building a new 355 4 bolt. I am going to put these edelbrock aluminum vette heads on em, and a crane cam set to firehawk specs. The rest I allready have. I need to get more info on what block Im going to use. I found a nice old style block for cheap. Id have to replace my flywheen to the old style and Ill have a two piece rear main seal but other than that I cant really see a down side to it. And the one I found is will be totally gone over by the machine shop before I buy.
