I've got the AJE K-member as well but finally going to run this sweet TKO thats been in my closet for almost 3 years LOL
Best thing is that I dont have to swap over to a hydraulic clutch to use it behind the 6.0. Using a Lakewood swap bell so I can use the Ford TKO.
I was originally going to go with Beryllium orange 2 tone with a Titanium Frost lower half.
Similar to this color combo
I've never seen another car like it. I photoshopped the color in the pic.
But since you and Dr Dirt are both going orange I decided to do 04 Cobra Sonic blue instead. Similar to the color in my sig.

I'm not sure how I will do the bottom end later. I do want to stroke it later down the road after my wife gets her own car. But anything can happen between now and then. I've always wanted to do a turbo motor as well so who knows what direction I go in.
As for this motor right now, other than some really minor head porting by me the long block will stay stock. I have no plans to spin this motor beyond 6000 RPM. The cam and torq curve will all be over by 6200 so no real point. It should be fine for now. It will be at least a year or 2 before I pull it back out to build it.
