The motors look nice Rob !! I like how the fp's & filter mount to the pan that way.. The brackets may be common (?) but for some reason thats the first time I've ever seen that or payed enuff attention but either way I may have to steal that idea..

Been following the thread, looks awesome!
Suggestion on the polished aluminum. Order some Zoops Seal. It will protect the aluminum once you have it polished so it does not start corroding or getting water spots. It will last a couple years! That is what the street rodders use on their high dollar polished billet parts and wheels. If you have the time it is well worth the effort! You will not have to polish again for a year or 2! On the distributor shoot some metal protectant on it, the ionized air and moisture both attack the bare metal in the housings. |

Must be a pain to apply. Thanks for the sugestions, Rob:drink: |

This October 2012 Ok I'm tearing down,Preventive maintenance I guess ya call it.
I put the blowers on in 2005 on this build up,Ive got some cool stuff and weird stuff to post. Ive got a new Dart Block ordered and fixing to replace all the Valve train in one motor and inspect the other"Which is all new already" picks to come. Rob |
Thanks for starting this thead Rob it was really a big help with my motor builds, the same size but only thing i did a little different was went with the AFR335 heads and the Crane 681 cams, at the recommendation from Dustin at Whipple. The motors should be done this week :evilb: there going in 30 foot Cigarette Mystique with Xr -2 shorties, just hope they hold up for a little while....Can't wait to hear your stories about your motors and the rebuilds....Again thanks for starting a great thread..Joe
