few of you probably remember the thread I had going last week.. Well I finally torn down everything and wasn't too surprised to find what I did.
Have no idea what went wrong, but something definaly did!! no detonation, 10psi or less, 1st gear roll on very easy and I get this!!
On a good note, as you see I'm already painting and preping everything to go back in.. There will defintaly be a nice surprise in the engine bay in the next couple weeks or less. Candy orange on the intake and center of cam covers, candy orange engine bay ( and exterior next month) and maybe a couple other small accents here and there.
I ordered the engine, flexplate ( needed an 8 bolt for auto trans), oil pump, all gaskets, head studs, Cometics, and will be doing alot of paint work.. I hope to have this car back on the road by next weekend ( 7-10th). Machine shop has my head ( getting 2 new valves, valve job and cleaning up).
Engine specs are :
Livernois Motorsport 4.6l new block, Cobra crank, Manely H beams, Mahle pistons (16cc), Fed Mogul bearings, Arp main studs. I'm going to gasket match the heads, and exhaust manifolds for a tad more flow, although I doubt it'll help much.
