sexy.. what did you end up deciding on for a combo anyway? edit - reason I ask is that there is no sig that I can see?

 

[BlackVert]

hey they shipped my motor to the wrong address!

that's awesome, what is your timeframe for installing it?

 

[95COBRA241]

Looks awesome, I love the look of a freshly built motor. Sometimes I wish i could afford two..I put one in the house as a trophy.

 

[WhiteDevil]

Lol yeah no sig, BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[1slow95]

Awesome! Why isn't it in the car yet?

 

[VibrantRedGT]

Ok, sorry about that. Check sig now.

 

[RIO5.0]

Thats horny looking... Whats the ETA on it running???

BTW...you suck...

 

[2L8ULUZ2]

Looks awesome! So what kind of power adder you going to throw at this one?

 

[VibrantRedGT]

No power adders. I put a tubular k-member in it to lighten the nose a bit.

I have to spray the engine bay before the motor goes in. It's just about ready for paint.

I'm guessing it should be in by the first week in Nov. I waited this long I'll wait a bit longer to get it right.

You are smart in taking your time. I took an entire summer to build my 306 and get it slid into the car. I started building it when I got out for summer break and it was back in the car and running a week before the fall semester started. It's better to check and re-check and then check it again to make sure its all right from the start.

 

[BlueOvalStangGT]

Took me like a week to build mine, you all suck! Looks good man, whos painting your engine bay? Or are you doing it with the rattle can?

 

[VibrantRedGT]

I'm doing the painting. One of my customers is an Auto Paints store so I got the color mixed there. I'm no painter but I'm only spraying the engine bay. I'll have lots of help too.

That thing is gonna be badass, it brings tears to my eyes b/c I can't afford something that wild.

 

[Grn92LX]

Nice! When my shortblock cam I ripped the packaging right open and started assembling

What are the cam specs?

 

[BlueOvalStangGT]

Your using spraypaint though right? My buddy Rick used spray paint to paint his engine bay and it looks :thumbsup:

 

[WhiteDevil]

Ok, sorry about that. Check sig now.

WOAH! This summer im putting together almost the exact same combo just different heads
347 10:1
Edel Performers 2.02 1.60
Edel RPM Ported
FTI Cam
30#ers
GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE

 

[94CobraPace]

Looks sweeet... I'm jeolous.

 

[Killercanary]

Looking good Joe. I can't wait to see how it works for you. I need either you or Mike to get some numbers from these 347's!!!

 

[Grn92LX]

I'm hoping to break into the 12's, Paul

Actually, i'm looking to upgrade the combo already. I REALLY wanna have the heads ported or sell them and pick up a local guys fti afr 185's he'll be selling. Then either another bigger fti cam or an anderson hi rev cam. Maybe a set of 4.10 or 4.30's and then have a real collector welded on my bbk longtubes with a 3" mid pipe. My girl just dumped me so I should have more time/money to waste on my car

I'm hoping to get to englishtown next weekend for the fords at englishtown event.
