Just ordered my cam from Mr. Freezy! He's working on it now should have it in a couple weeks! Now I have to get my butt going on the other parts:balancer,timing chain,water pump,headers,misc extras. On the subject of balancers any recommendations? I want a SFI approved but don't want to break the bank on a Inn. west. I think after spending as much as I have I probably will put the dart block on hold for awhile. I probably should have done that first but got impatient. Oh well this 302 should be fun!!
I'm actually going to pick up some wheels/tires this weekend. Got a good deal(imo) on some used 15x3 1/2/15x10 draglites with damn near new metric tires/MT ET streets(8 passes and 60 street miles-according to seller). I didn't have any front runners and my old 15x8's are in rough shape. Picking them up for 600$ with lugs. I have all the suspension pieces already. Hopefully once I get it all done and figured out I can 60 under 1.5.After my recent HCI swap I thought i was ready to move onto the exterior and interior, after a tune that is. However, I find myself constantly drooling over wheels and tires (drag setup) and the baseline suspension UCA's. The cosmetics definetly need some help though.

Unfortunately no. Haven't turned a wrench yet. It's just been to cold for me. If it does warm up in the next couple weeks I'll dig out my old heater and start. I still am waiting on the cam also. He's supposed to be getting it this week and shipping it to me. I also need to get my elec fan setup. Also waiting on a back order from LMR...uggh. I'm going to pick up my wheels/tires tomorrow. I'm actually running out of room for all the parts(presently in garage/laundry/and a few in the kitchen lol).^^^Those look like BBK longtubes, congrats!!!Nothing wrong with chrome unless your doing car shows. Only reason I went with ceramic is because I went through all the trouble with smoothing and tucking so I thought, why not?
Any other progress pictures of the engine? Give us something!!!0
I feel your pain on the room thing, i currently have the garage, dining room, basement, sunroom, and a shed full of not only car parts, but old furniture, tool boxes, and miscellaneous other crap of my moms. I really need to get on cl and get rid of some of this stuff.
