Room for a mighty big sub box? ... oh, wait: that's what you're installing - an expensive, gas powered sound-system of the forced induction variety

They plan is have everything back together by Thursday. Then Brian will start tuning.


Not sure about the read end yet. Until I have some RWHP & TQ numbers it's an unknown. Obviously launching the car hard will be a problem. But I will not be drag racing the car. The R200 diff conversion is an option and 75% probable.

I spoke with Ya yesterday & today. Jeremy had some concerns with the valve clearances. He worked until 10pm reworking the valves. It's done now, the new engine should be in the car tomorrow.

Time to make some hotel reservation for VA again.

Block with oilpump.


New refinished head.


Block ready for the head.
