Thanks, I totally agree.



Thanks Mike, it wil be a while before I'm able to fire this engine up.



Thanks Eric, what cam did you end up going with in yours?



Thanks Jimmy, I'm jealous that you have the inside of your cab painted and putting the interior in. It's so cold here that I can barely get my garage heated to 70 degrees and forget about the metal it's hard to get it up to 60 degrees. Maybe I'll see some paint in the spring.



Man that thing must be a beast, post up a video if you have one.
Sorry no video. Gotta make one. Drove it for about a month with the header dumps off and I can tell you this, "when I fired that sucker up people first about jumped outta their skin and then they came running". Awesome cam shaft.
