Yes...I could probably use the door holder again Larry, lol. I'll weld the corners up for you Larry. No problem.

OverKill is flying a "holding pattern" while I complete my Powder Coat oven build. Solid roller 496 BBC is being assembled by Smith Racing of Denver right now. Edelbrock aluminum rectangle port heads H beam rods were selected amongst a bunch of other goodies! Should get up and get pretty well!!!

Frizzle Fry · 01-06-2008, 06:51 AM

Oh man that is going to be SWEET! Looks big enough to do rad supports and maybe even bumpers.

ChevyDude · 01-06-2008, 06:56 AM

Yep...big enough for radiator supports and with my special built Diagonal rack will do bumpers up to 80" long.

ColoradoK5 · 01-30-2008, 03:16 AM

Any updates? are you going to the Tri-state swap meet?

ChevyDude · 02-10-2008, 05:26 AM

Three electric 3100 watt oven elements will heat the oven.

Frizzle Fry · 03-08-2008, 08:00 AM

ChevyDude · 03-08-2008, 06:20 PM

Ouch, those are just a little out of my price range. It seems like all the nice things usually are though. Thanks for the link Alex...

Sounds like you're building some serious motivation for Overkill.......hence the name "Overkill"

Looking good!

Thanks Jim! OverKill's powerplant should have plenty of motivation! I am told it should be above 650hp.

ChevyDude · 03-15-2008, 03:49 AM

Progress: 3-13-08 OverKill's complete shortblock comes home!!! The heartbeat of a 496 BBC! Very Excited!!!
