Hey woody,
I think you emailed me bck the other day about the dart block 408... I havent heard anything back from you, but I am flying out tomorrow morning. Once I get everything taken care of over there and get my vonage phone I will give you a buzz about the motor.

build sounds good! mild ls' shouldn't be a problem for that motor. mine only put down 313, but with the first motor i beat a 98 t/a and a 01 ws6. both were stock tho :/
and i agree when building something like this custom cam is the only way to go!

if your going to put 400hp/trq in that vert, you better stiffen it up.
im prob only doing subframe connectors, and a few other thing's, as i dont plan on doing much other to this car other then the tranny swap.
but if i do keep it, ill be putting in a 6pt rollbar in it.
good luck!

I hear ya on that... Ive got Maximum Motor Sports Full Length subframe connectors going on right after christmas... they are sitting in the back room waiting... since they are a "present" I cant play with them yet...
I may do a 6 pt cage in the future, but Ive got other things inline first...
I hear you on the whole broke college thing... it does suck...
