I had takin it apart to replace the head gaskets, and while i was at it I ported and cleaned up the heads , put a new performer intake and changed my stock 2brl to a holly street avenger. It ran OK before , but felt like it had a vacuum leak or somthin. found the intake gasket was pretty bad around the #8 cyl intake and water ports.
I havent had a chance to drive it (have a few more things to do) but it shur does idle great and revs strong! Later
