Cam'd 6.2L, TH400, Magnum and a early ford D60 front and 14 bolt rear. Should be pretty fun. Right now we're trying to burp coolant and bleed brakes. Pacific Fab/Tilden Motorsports did the engine and base tune. We're supposed to hit the dyno monday morning but we need some things to go right for that to happen.

Wow, that sounds interesting! I´m sure you´ll love the cam´d 6.2 when it works under full power! Are you running your front 4-link kit or something custom?

I will try to get a hold of Jared first thing Monday morning (he´s in Florida), so maybe by the time you get to work monday I might have some more info for you. I can´t promise anything but I´ll try to get you the info you need.
I´d be really interested to see the dyno chart once you get it all up and running!

I still need to dyno mine as well.
