Am I supposed to update this?

Well took out the motor to try and fix a few leaks that I couldnt do while in the car. Did some more work to the motor, like headstuds, Brodix Aluminum heads, new ported Edelbrock victor manifold, locked out distributor, new water pump, fixed some of the wiring and plumbing.

Anyways here ya go I guess..

It looks like you're getting really close!

I think you're going to have an awesome time with your car once it's done.

Hopefully soon, its been way too long since this thing has moved under its own power. Also found out the hard way that myy ignition problem was caused by using the wrong carbon bushing in the cap.. made so much heat it MELTED the cap to the bushing. Almost there though, just keep plucking away at it

congrats man but why lock out the distributor on a street motor

DAWG 07-22-2012 10:32 PM

that intake looks nice on the motor .

Ive locked out the distributor on a few street motors and it worked well. Some motors actually perform better down low with the added timing. Ive done dyno testing to check this as well.

Thanks DAWG, didnt clean it or anything lol

84ta406 07-23-2012 06:39 PM

Oh yeah forgot to mention the MSD digital 6 plus bux has a built in starter saver that retards timing 20* until it reaches a certain RPM so the locked out distributor will work good I hope
