Forged 418, stg 3 ported brodix heads, fast efi, hyd. roller sportsman block, march pullies, making a tad over 500hp on motor. Love the throttle response!
Hope this can be viewed, and thanks for the help of several of ya'll. Got it running Monday and had back sugery Wednesday, but talk about motivation.

I think this video is now insync with the sound. Just click on the picture and it should play for you.

Neighbors ? I'll bet you set off the alarms at a few of the refineries and plants next door. The sound is out of whack with the picture. otherwise it sounds good.

That's a great sounding engine, love that stand you have for it too. Is that home built?
Congrats

Thanks guys. The stand is a little nicer than it has to be. I figured it would get used alot though, so it can be justified. I'll try to post just pictures of the stand. The biggest expense was to get it powder coated, because I had everything else laying around. The powder coating was around $250, tubing would of costs around $150, expanded metal $75, and wheels were probably $50. But what I like about it is it rides on both motor mounts and transmission mount as well at the scattershield. I have thought about selling them on the side, but doubt there would be much profit in it. It also weights a little more than I would like it to.
