Few more from this week. Motors should be wrapped up very soon, and will be onto the dyno and then dropped back in.

Looks great and going together nicely- you should be set for several good seasons.

First motor hit the Dyno today.

438hp at 5000 rpm (with stock computers that's as high as we could run it).

508 ft lbs of torque at 3700.

Not bad for bone stock. Plus, we only did the top ends. Bottoms have 380 hours.

Colabella inspected them for me and he has a guy in the same complex that painted them.

A couple new gauges and and a new steering filter...

Second engine should go on the dyno tomorrow, and they both should get dropped in next week. Only questionable item are the new exhaust tails. Will most likely need to modify them slightly to fit thru the existing exhaust holes.

looks like Kenny is doing a real nice job as usual, took my back to him a couple of years ago for some engine mods he did a great job and some nice updates.
