Cool ! Good luck with the purchase ect .....

There is no body local that should be working on those motors, go to Tommy like I told you. You have the same blocks as I do, 653ci super tall decks. They don't make our blocks anymore so I wouldn't have a local play with them. I believe CJ can fill you in on some storys about local builders.

Don't worry buddy I already have them sitting on my desk for you!!

This weekend you and I can take a couple of minutes and go over some engine options. I know Parn gave you a big # but Tommy at Chief can take what you got and work his magic and do them for alot cheaper. C'mon North Shore!!!!!!!!!!

Interior- Craig at Appearance is the only place to go. His man Nick is doing all the custom Skater interiors. He did my Challenger Interior this spring. You are welcome to come down and see mine. My shop is ten minutes down the road from Appearance. Those rap around Skater style rear buckets with head rests are insane. Emily has all my photos saved, it will be in their next brochure. Like I said, anytime you can come down and look at mine, search the general for Appearance Products and my rear seat is shown, its sick.

I agree on the Engine builders, Between my friends and I everyone has a horror story from the area. My shop just did a repair on D. Korhorns Cougar that did not run right all last summer. A well known, I won't trash them here, local builder put it together. A Blown 588 that no one tightened the poly locks down on the #4 cylinder, kicked the push rods out and a lifter. Lucky it did not hurt anything, but just a mistake an engine shop should not make. MR PS I do have a well worn Wicked Won T in my drawer if you want it.:drink:

Any updates yet Dan ?

Lets talk about the interior ideas .... I may be interested in a change on mine as well ?!?!?!

The latest word from North Shore is the middle of this week. Funny thing, I was in the show room Sunday afternoon going over WW to see what was onboard as far as parts...thinking about what I want onboard...measuring the blower pulleys (47 tooth top, 55 tooth bottom), anyway, they all left and locked the doors with me inside WW!! I guess...just lock up on my way out.
JM, I want to go with two drop out bolsters at the helm and a mildly bolstered bench seat in back with dropouts for the bench as well. All manual drop outs, not fancy electric ones. The must be industrial looking too. Maybe some of the grey carbon fiber looking stuff. For sure, plain jane and heavy duty. Any ideas? Yours?

JM, I'm going nuts here...no answers from North Shore on my offer, they keep saying a couple more days. What can you share with me about the Sterlings???
