Welcome to the board! Its nice to have a few more guys around our age.


Similar story... I spent a year working at an engine shop doing tear-downs, machining, cleaning, whatever needed to be done. I got the job by telling them I would work for free (apprenticeship kinda thing), and I worked so hard they ended up paying me in parts. I hand built my 496 on my own with their help.

You got yours runnin yet? Its all the stuff you didnt think of pre-swap that takes time... I put the motor in the truck well over a year ago and still havent gotten her fired up (im away at college pretty much year round)I cant wait to hear what kind of numbers it puts down!
