Hi `Brock,
I know you are a `Big Boy now physically, but we are still debating `if you are Big Boy mentally (LOL)
Yes, everything that seems to be good for your `ride is Expensive 4-Sure....I found those 2 Engines I posted above on E-Bay, & wow they are high priced... like wow ....

* a Stall would be a good investment...Wish you Good Luck & Super Power....Keep us all updated *pic's are a Big Boy +

Well Space, so far I'm only $50 into this build after I sold the 350 out of it, so I wouldn't say expensive

Anyone want to take a swing at which one is going in there?




Motor on the stand is gone, I brought it home from the machine shop after they didnt touch it for a month.....



Cleaned up that motor on the floor, looks a bit better now I'd say.



The beauty and the beast.

I feel for ya here, mine sat with nothing done for nearly 2 months. After pushing a handful of times, they finally got it all thrown together in 2 days.

Their excuse was racing season was starting up- so between building circle track engines and valve springs (they sold valve springs through jegs and summit and such), they didn't have the resources to work on it yet. Interesting how they didn't mention that when I was giving them parts and a deposit...

Lots of the local places around here cater to the circle track drivers. Anyone else and you're nothing to them

Wish you super good luck on your project ..I will be look'in 4ward to your future updates...
Peace/Out from `Space
