Re: 77 longbed "overbudget" build
Well its been alongtime since I have updated this build thread. Well since last post I have just been enjoying my ride. I updated the interior alil with fresh painted door panels dash bezel, and tried several times to use my B&M floor shifter kept bending cables so went back to the column shifter. Also as the moment my motor is tore apart again and sitting opn the engine stand. Turns out i glazed 3 cylinders the night i took it to the track. Must haver just been too soon. Tho it did pull strong to 6krpm each shift and ran consistant low 15 high 14's all night. Tuesday the block is going to the machine shop for honeing and block prep.
having crank polished, swapping to forged internals, and having everything balanced this time. Will post up some new pics on sunday
