Default Finall

Well im almost done with my new motor, my plans were totally changed though, originally i wanted twisted wedge heads and a trickflow cam, but it turns out i couldn't afford them right now. So right now i have the factory heads... but i will be changing them and installing a cam as soon as i can.

But i did clean it all up and installed new gaskets and all that good stuff. I think it turned out ok.

BEFORE -













AND AFTER






Not bad for a first timer eh, just need to install the rest of the distributor, and waterpump... and of course the carburetor and nitrous spacer

you should be able to pull low 14's out of it in stock form..if you got gears and full exhaust then high 13's are possible..looks good!!!!
