I have a decent pin on 4 inch hood, I'm going to use it on an autocross car so I would prefer something a little less tall, if you wan to work some kind of a deal. I will be in St. Pete on Thursday if it works.

Ordered a Flaming river manual rack and steering shaft today...

Also picked up some used Comp linked lifters for the retro fit into my 351w block. Got them for a STEAL!!!

Next on the list is a K-member, A arms, coil overs and drag struts...

Something arrived at the house today...232/342 @ .050 and .542/.560 lift



Should do nicely in my little small block with great driveability

Also, local guy in NC had a B&M super cooler and a B&M pro magnum shifter I could use. Pick them up for $250 and he delivered them to my house in just a few hours. Swell guy!

Also, got on Corral and found an AFCO radiator and aJW Reverse manual valve body. Just need a stall and she is ready together!

351w bored .030 over to make 357ci

SCAT 9000 crank
SCAT H beam rods with ARP bolts
Probe SRP flat top pistons
Fresh assembly, all new internals
28oz balance

With my Dart 62cc chamber heads, and a .047 head gasket, this will be 10.44:1 compression. Will run on 93 pump gas and should do pretty good at the track. Through my C4 I would like to see 350+rwhp, then I will hit it with a 150 shot.

$1300, no way I could have ever purchased all this and had it all assembled for this price. Will make for a nice little weekend cruiser engine till I can afford my expensive ass 408w rotating assembly and Dart block.
