Some of you know about my problem at Thunder HIll a few months back. Things are starting to come together. Here are a couple of pics of the new motor.
Before Dan "Turbo50" came to pick everything up.
a couple weeks later and this is what he dropped off yesterday
I'm hoping to find time in the next week or so to drop this bad boy in. I cant wait to hear this thing start up.
I wanted to take this time to thank the following people.
1st off Dan "Turbo50" - All I got to say is this dude knows his shit. Thanks for taking the time to answer my countless questions, leading me in the right direction and ultimately building this engine. A stand up guy for sure that looks out for other enthusiasts.
JohnB - Thanks again bro for the over the phone tech support and helping me pick the right parts for the build.
CobraCoupe - Thanks for the block & crank. It was exactly what you said it was . A good seller and stand up guy.
Ian "SydeWaySix" & Greg "9cobra7" - Thanks for the positive encouragement. It was needed after the F'ed up day at the track. I was a little burned out on wrenching but they helped me get back on the right path.
I will keep updating as I go with a 1st start up video and shortly after that I'll get a Video of this thing on a Dyno getting tuned.
This site sometimes is over run with the BS in general talk but this proves that this site is full of real car guys that are willing to help one another, because thats what its all about.
THANKS!!!

YES! YES! YES! This build is full of WINNING Jay! Good shit for sure! I told you bro...don't let the f'ed up engine end the beginning of your track career ![[Wink]](wink.gif) Good choice sending it off to a pro to build it too! You'll have a lot more confidence in it. ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)
Let me know when you start dropping it in and putting it all together. I'll be kind of busy these next couple weeks but if you're still wrenching after the weekend of July 2nd I'll be free! I want to help you get on the track asap! ![[Whoo Whooooo!]](graemlins/woowoo.gif) ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)
Oh yea, dont get pissed off when that blingin' motor of your's gets all dirty ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

No doubt cheap insurance on that beautiful 331. That's awesome news man and I think you picked the right cubes for open tracking too!
Just make sure your last little bit of work is a good tune and a nice little autometer water temp gauge, for looks of course

Switch that oil pan out. I would hate to see you loose oil pressure on a turn with that new motor

I'm hoping for 340 hp 360 tq to the wheels with a tune. I would buy a oil pan but my motor money has dwindled. Only have enough left for some valve covers and a tune. I'm about 1k over budget.

Give me the Vette, and I will buy you a pan, Looks like a good build, and Dan is a great guy to deal with. What cam did you go with?
