RE: made some more progress today
for the price the PP is nice but it needs a new return spring so you can just take yours and swap it in, i was lazy and should of, so i just bought a return spring for a carb and put it in place. it works fine
block is flat black, heads and water pump and intake are the color of the car. its that charcoal
i got a full K member with coil overs and A arms but the A arms and Coilovers havent came in yet. so i figure this would give me time to get it running and somewhat tuned.

well tried to start it last night didnt happen. so i charged the battery. also it wouldnt get crank signal, found out that my park safety switch wasnt reading. i think the paint on the sensor on the tranny caused this. so i jumped it out it cranks ya!!!!!!!!!, tried to fire it nope damm it, now its popping found out the Dist was in 180, so swapped it over now im flooded with 30# and 255 pump. also found out i need a new starter, the CR on this motor must be more then the stock starter can take. it spins the motor slow.i figured it was up in the 10.1 range. so im charging battery again and letting the fuel evap from the cylinders. but it sounds deep trying to crank it over
hopefully in an hour it fires

Honestly if you get 300rwhp N/A with your setup it will surprise me.No pun attended just don't see it happing with cast heads,and junkyard performance.But i've been prove wrong manytimes buy you.....

damm you havent done much researching hten. there isnt any performance gain from Aluminum heads, you do know that right? the biggest advantage to aluminum heads is the weight.
i can show you plenty of combos like mine that make well over 300rwhp. i said it and ill say it again you dont need high dollar parts to make good power, you just need to know what your doing.
well my GT40 lower is fully ported, upper is also gasket matched
heads been ported,polished, bowl work, valve work, been milled.
thats just some of the work done...its not like i havent done the research and dont know how to build amotor.
and this motor is only going to be a part time motor, basically something to play with to i build my next motor. next motor will have aluminum heads. just for weight savings. my next goal is 2600lbs
