How should it ride out ?

I have been overly careful not to make lofty predictions or call anyone out. I have my goals, I have already exceeded part of them. I am certain I will not live up to everyones expectations, no one ever does and I could care less if I get close to anyones.

But I am curious to know what you think as well as anyone else.

I think your car is bad ass. I wish I had the money and patience that you have put in to this car! The only thing that’s going to suck is when your car is finally running all the will go away lol i doubt it

Patience is something I had to learn the last few years, this has been one additional thing this project has taught me for sure and I am grateful.

The money end of it, yeah it is a pretty good chunk but know I have been waiting to do a R block motor of some sort for 10+ years so it has been a long time coming with lots of setting money aside.

I am not looking to set any sort of records here, I made a lot of compromises to keep it more streetable instead of max power. This was in contrast to what my builder wanted to do. Don't get me wrong I used pretty damn good parts but I kept the compression down, stayed with my rather basic heads, small off the shelf cam, etc.. But I did do other things to the motor that will allow me to step it up rather easily if I want to get into the insane power region but then I will loose a lot of streetability.

And quite the contrary on the 's they will start stepping on their dicks even more, you watch.

BTW I was not trying to be hostile with my other reply, I re-read it and it seems like it could be viewed as hostile.
