The car was alot of fun like this but after a while the factory head gaskets desided that my pistions wanted water instead of gas. And this along with a bent rod were the results.

Now for the engine tear down. Also done by Andy while I was on some boat/fallon det.

The origonal plan was an eaton swap w/the motor build. ANDY later talked me out of it.

So...with the Heaton swap sold I picked up a set of GT supercar cams and ported 01 cobra heads that had COMP springs and needed a valve job. the heads had mixed mached valves, so the heads were cc'd, the port work was checked, and the valve springs checked to make sure they could handle the cams.

HOPEFULLY, the longblock (built by Nate/ Elky406) will be done this week so Andy and I can get the motor buttoned up and back in the car so it can go to ALL OUT PERFORMANCE for the fuel system and some custom fab power adder stuff....
Foxman will be updating this thread while i'm deployed.

THANKS JOE, well for now the clutch and injectors will be the limiting factor. the clutch is rated for 600tq and the 60lb inj are good for a little over 700whp. i'll need to learn how to tame it before i go up any higher.
plus it will let me keep my 3.73's a little longer. once i pass 700 whp it will be time for 3.55's or 3.31's
