Got the Girls back today again! Let’s hope this go around goes better! Stay tuned hope to splash her before Labor Day! I got to get back to work!

I missed it - where did they go and what was the result?

I battled the 100+ degree temps all day in the shop with a mind set of only dropping one engine in but found a second wind and managed to get the other in also AGAIN rigged and plumbed minus exhaust ( will do tonight ) going to hang the drives back on and hopefully fire her back off again tonight and hope for all things good!

what was the reasoning for pulling the power? these were the new motors, correct?

love the progress so far - keep it up!

first time I put them in in March and fired them they filled up with water nearly immediately When the t-stats opened. Flushed them and sent them back out to the nice man I bought them from and he took them apart to find some bad gaskets along the intake etc. then re ran on the stands and all seemed fine finally got them back week before last took some time off work to get her back together. Fingers crossed all is well this time this project has been a 12 steps forward 25 backward but I’ll keep fighting her lol!

She is alive and well again it seems! Got the drives on and everything rigged up today / tonight! Fired off on the first hit of the key!

Well worth the efforts !!

Congrats

Back to square one. These engines are garbage blew up in less than 30 minutes run time at idle. What’s for sale?

I’ve got a set of 496 mag ho with a 100 hrs since full rebuild. At that point forge pistons and a raylor 203 camshafts were installed if your interested
